Please remove this directory to make this repo buildable across all platforms. This is created by your system for its unique architecture and configuration for its virtual environment. Anyone who uses this repo like myself has to be manually delete this before they can build if their build environment is different. Otherwise, make install will fail, which is why I incorrectly resorted to using global Python before this. (As a side note, I was wrong by using global Python in the makefile. Global Python does not work properly when called by the running process which causes the monitoring page to not work. This is why running Python from the local bin folder in the makefile after initially creating the virtual environment is the correct approach, which you had fixed.) You will notice that is why RetroPie/RetroPie-Manager does not have the share, bin, and include folders.

Delete share/python-wheels directory
Delete bin directory
Delete lib/python2.7 directory
Delete include directory
If this is integrated into the main branch for RetroPie-Manager (https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Manager), we will want to match this pull request (RetroPie@ae65d7e) that updates this URL from the old abandoned repo to RetroPie's repo.

I just wanted to share this working fork works which, among other things, restores x86 and x86-64 compatibility on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, as well as bringing a slew of improvements to the table. First, a big show of thanks to @NicholasBarryman for doing all the work he did to get this excellent web interface working again! He updated the monitoring page to provide live, actively updated system information using AJAX and JSON, so things like processor core utilization and memory usage can now be viewed instantly without ever refreshing the page. He also bumped up the upload file size limit for ROM files from 256MB to 10GB which is especially useful for disc-based systems like PlayStation, Dreamcast, GameCube, PS2 or Wii.
