 GNOME Video Arcade has a few external dependencies which need to be
 installed prior to compiling the source code:
 
-   - sdlmame or xmame
+   - mame or xmame
 
        These may be available as pre-compiled packages from your
        GNU/Linux distribution.  If not, you can download and compile
        the source code yourself.
