I had a look at libretro-mupen64plus (out of curiosity only). I saw that it bundles a copy of mupen64plus and its modules.
Due to the fact that Mupen64plus can be used as a library and it is already in Debian I am wondering in how far this copy differs from the upstream mupen64plus. Given that emulators handle a lot of untrusted data from various (sometimes shady) sources I am wondering whether it is possible/feasible to use the already packaged mupen64plus with libretro. I am not very familiar with libretro, so please excuse my ignorance.
