Love this concept and project, I hope its not dead!
I would love to see AttractMode integrated into the version checker and update scripts!
Also, I have so far been unable to use the mame-updater script successfully.
Attempts to upgrade to 0265 fail because gcc version is to old, even after a dist-upgrade.
Attempts to upgrade to 0264 get much further along, but ultimately fail (after 8 hours of compiling)

While I am quite comfortable with linux in general, I am not that familiar with the manual compiling and building process, so I am not sure how to best troubleshoot this.
Anywho, thanks, and I hope to see further updates!
EDIT - I realized I only upgraded from buster to bullseye when I tried to compile 0265 and 0264, I went ahead and upgraded to bookworm, and am now compiling 0265 using mame-upgrade.sh
Hopefully it completes succsesfully!
