--db databse.json, with database.json in the same folder, was told to run
generate_db --force --output databse.json: a rescan of the whole
collection into a second file under the typo. load_database now names the
closest .json in that folder first, and gives the rebuild command only
when none is close.
A mistyped --system said '--list-systems lists all 579' and the listing
prints 532: the hint counted every spelling across profiles, and
system_index merges the ones that differ in case or separator before
printing. Both verify.py and generate_pack.py now pass that count to
suggest_names, whose listed parameter exists for this case.
The closing summary of verify --all grouped platform to names: sfiii2a.zip,
missing on 15 platforms, was printed 15 times on a 1 060-character line and
counted 24 files for 10 distinct ones. It now groups by file and names the
platforms by the shorter side (every platform but BizHawk, MinUI, MiSTer
FPGA).
Only generate_pack.py and pipeline.py checked the interpreter. verify.py,
slots.py, validate_pr.py, cross_reference.py and the probe tools started
under 3.8 and stopped halfway on a str.removeprefix AttributeError. The
check now lives in common.py, which every build script imports, and in
core_probe.py and region_check.py, which do not. generate_site.py imports
common before siterender, which raised a TypeError at load under 3.8.
Six helpers that write a pack member declared zipfile.ZipFile while every
call site also passes the PackRecord the pipeline builds emulator and
narrowed packs with. mypy reported the 19 call sites as arg-type errors.
With the union in the signature a helper that calls writestr or write
without its isinstance branch is a union-attr error in CI, instead of an
AttributeError in the pipeline's record pass.
Every signature carries annotations and nothing read them. mypy 1.18.2
over install.py and scripts/ reports 993 errors today, among them the
six pack helpers typed zipfile.ZipFile that every caller also hands a
PackRecord. The errors sit in mypy-baseline.txt and the schema job fails
on any error outside it, or on an entry that no longer occurs. Third-party
packages are left out so the result does not depend on the machine: 6 s
locally, run twice and on 3.12 and 3.13 with the same errors.
_ships and _emulator_ships resolved without the data directories, the
archive index and the slot override the builder uses: 400 platform
declarations and 178 emulator entries read as missing while the pack
held them.
A search that found nothing sent any short text, which a name could be.
Its words now go out only as a file name or a hash, every other search
is counted as "other" without them.
Pages, referring domains and a few actions (searches that found
nothing, downloads, missing addresses, "Did this page help?") are sent
to GoatCounter. Nothing is stored on the device, and nothing is sent
under Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control. wiki/privacy.md says what
is sent.
EmuELEC's scripts/image writes COREELEC_DEVICE to os-release (v4.8, line
189), as a GameForce image shows. The installer reads it the way it does
for AmberELEC and applies install/targets/emuelec.json. MiSTer FPGA takes
EmuELEC's place in the test of a platform without targets.
The v4.8 release publishes four images (Amlogic-ng, GameForce,
OdroidGoAdvance, OdroidM1, read from its asset names). The metapackage
(packages/sx05re/emuelec/package.mk:8-77) builds the S922X cores, dolphinSA
and mame only on Amlogic-ng, Amlogic-no, RK356x and OdroidM1, and removes
duckstation on the handhelds with a sed that replaces the first match only:
pcsx_rearmed, written twice, keeps its 64-bit build. Each package is mapped
to its cores by the .so or program its install step copies, PKG_ARCH is
applied as scripts/build:28-30 does, and es_systems.cfg is edited per
device as emuelec-emulationstation/package.mk:114-143 does. Amlogic-ng and
OdroidM1 list 124 cores, the handhelds 117.
RetroPie was the only platform with status: archived, which kept it out
of verify --all, slots, the pipeline and list_platforms unless
--include-archived was typed. release_pack already decides which packs a
release publishes and the installer serves every platform, so the status
set nothing apart. The field, its schema entry and the flag are gone, and
RetroPie is covered by every full run like any other platform.
check_source_paths read the trees profiles pin from source and upstream
only, so the two platform trees the record now holds for pin_build
files read as orphaned and the record as stale.
reading-reports quotes a RetroDECK run, which now prints the bundled count and 30 missing game data instead of 38. The comment introducing the bundled names also loses its semicolon.
test_twin_declaration_status and test_verify_data_dir_notice join the testing guide table, and test_large_file_cache calls unittest.main after its last class.
