What's new?
- MAME 0.289
Tuesday, 4th August 2026
Packaging went smooth this time and you can grab MAME 0.289 packages for Ubuntu Resolute 26.04, Noble 24.04 and Jammy 22.04.
Note: no more updates for Ubuntu Questing 25.10—it has reached end-of-life and is no longer supported on Launchpad.
Enjoy!
- MAME 0.288
Tuesday, 16th June 2026
Wow! That was something, but we're finally there!
Packages for MAME 0.288 are now ready.
There have been some upstream changes that could only be addressed by removing /etc/mame and making the .mame/ directory mandatory. Don't worry, though—you shouldn't notice any difference, as a script has been added to create .mame/ automatically if it doesn't already exist.
Since the previous MAME release, Ubuntu 26.04 "Resolute Raccoon" has become the default version, so support for it has been added alongside the existing packages for Ubuntu Questing 25.10, Noble 24.04, and Jammy 22.04.
There have also been a number of minor changes; please check the MAME website for the full details.
That's all for now. Have fun with MAME!

Work is in progress on MAME 0.288 due to a couple of changes that still need addressing.
Meanwhile, I had to make room in my PPA to get Launchpad to accept new builds. Packages are still available for Ubuntu Questing 25.10, Noble 24.04, Jammy 22.04 and Focal 20.04 — sadly, anything else had to be dropped.
Things are on their way, stay tuned!
