There are thousands of different distributions of Linux, and many of these use different package systems to manage application installation. Some popular ones are .deb format used by Debian, Ubuntu and its variants, and there :''This page is also RPM format used by [[Emulation about software on Fedora|Fedora]]Linux that emulates other hardware, RedHat, and many otherslike video game consoles.Packages of the game console and computer emulators exist ''{{for popular Linux distros, usually available from the official |software repositories of the distribution, but they are usually very old compared to the upstream versions. In addition, these packages are typically made only for one single version of the distribution, and due to dependency problems, these can not be used in other distros.There are at least three new package formats that are aiming to bring application portability to the Linux ecosystem. Packages using these formats are quite huge in file size due to bundling all dependencies in it, but they can run in any popular Linux distros.on other Operating Systems|Hypervisors}}
==Flatpak==Flatpak (formerly xdg-app) '''Linux''' is a family of operating systems based on the [[wikipedia:Linux kernel|Linux kernel]]. Operating systems using the Linux kernel are commonly called Linux distributions (distro-agnostic application framework). It is a decentralized system ;Emulators on LinuxDue to the overlap with the technical and has no central package repository. Insteadopen source communities, the user must manually add majority of emulators in existence will have Linux versions available. The commercial success of the repository's URL to the system before packages can be installed, like in [[Emulation on Ubuntuwikipedia:Steam Deck|Ubuntu's PPASteam Deck]]has also contributed heavily to consumer demand for native emulators on Linux.
;Before diving in;;*If you're on a Steam Deck, you should probably use [https://flathubwww.emudeck.orgcom/ FlathubEmuDeck]which is an installation script that helps you get started with emulation. It is not an all in one solution like some other software; instead, it strives to provide the best possible official options to you, probably set up and ready to go.;*See the [[Linux guide for emulators]] for Distro specific instructions;*See the biggest Flatpak repository[[Recommended Linux distros|Recommended Linux distributions]].;*See each Wiki Category [[:Category:Consoles|Consoles]], [[:Category:Computers|Computers]] and [[:Category:Arcade|Arcade]] for individual dedicated system pages to see more detailed comparisons and information about software emulators. Dedicated system pages provide more up-to-date listings and in-depth information on specific aspects like hardware features, peripheral support, and compatibility etc.;*Some games have [[Game engine recreations and source ports]] that run on Linux, has several which can be the better than emulatorsfor their specific games.

Can't find your emulator in RPMfusion? Want an up to date version git version instead of dolphin stable? First, check [https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/ Fedora's COPR repositories]. For example, for Dolphin, https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/victoroliveira/dolphin-emu-git/.
Still can't find a precompiled version? We get to compile them ourselves!
