I'm trying to run Dolphin Emulator on Kubuntu 21.04 using the recommended PPA. However, when I try to install it using sudo apt install dolphin-emu-master, I get an error about it not having a release file for 21.04/Hirsute. On the PPA, there is only a release file up to 18.04/Cosmic which is still being updated. I decide to edit the apt sources file to make it say cosmic rather than hirsute, however I just get an error about broken packages. I either need a way to ignore the broken packages that occurred due to me having to change the release name in the sources file, or a proper PPA that works with 21.04 that I can use. I know there is one in the default repositories, but that version is outdated and I need something from the beta or development channel for the additional features.

Use the following commands to remove unnecessary PPA and install from official repository:

sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:dolphin-emu/ppa

sudo add-apt-repository universe
sudo apt-get install dolphin-emu

Also please note that AUR says that this package is outdated 2021-09-11.

If you really need newer version - use the following options:

  • install 5.0-15158 from Snap

    sudo snap install dolphin-emulator --edge

  • install 5.0-15158 from FlatPak

    sudo apt install flatpak
flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
flatpak install flathub org.DolphinEmu.dolphin-emu

  • compile from sources - follow official wiki.
