Not all our users want or are able to use the official AppImage, so not only did our build instructions need to be improved, but it was also equally important to refine the environment necessary to get yuzu running — namely, the dependencies, build process, etc.
The first step was to [make SDL2](https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu/pull/6204) [an external dependency.](https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu/pull/6207)
This would allow us to ship the latest version without having to face Linux distributions incompatibilities due to different build flags (different characteristics being enabled), or outright outdated versions that arent able to support all of the required features that our input asks for.
This would allow us to ship the latest version without having to face Linux distributions' incompatibilities due to different build flags (different characteristics being enabled), or outright outdated versions that arent able to support all of the required features that our input asks for.
The changes to SDL2 introduced an incompatibility with the Conan-provided Boost version. [Downloading it as an external](https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu/pull/6222) ensures compatibility, as most of the time the local packages provided by the distribution wont be enough.
This change also makes our external download script cross-platform with Windows and other distributions that used to require special workarounds.
