Batocera upstream has a truncated 29-char MD5 for zx48.rom.
The scraper now resolves truncated hashes via prefix match
against database.json, preventing schema validation failures.
resolve_platform_cores() links platforms to their cores via
three strategies: all_libretro, explicit list, system ID
fallback. Pack generation always includes core requirements
beyond platform baseline. Case-insensitive dedup prevents
conflicts on Windows/macOS. Data dir strip_components fixes
doubled paths for Dolphin and PPSSPP caches.
Identical _fetch_raw() implementation (URL fetch + cache + error handling)
was duplicated in 4 scrapers. Moved to BaseScraper.__init__ with url param.
Each scraper now passes url to super().__init__() and inherits _fetch_raw().
Eliminates ~48 lines of duplicated code.
DRY audit now clean: resolve logic in common.py, scraper CLI in base_scraper,
_fetch_raw in BaseScraper. Remaining duplications are justified (different
list_platforms semantics, context-specific hash computation).
- batocera_scraper: fix OrderedDict parsing for ast.literal_eval
- auto_fetch: fix TypeError when sha1/md5 is None
- verify: filter non-ZIP files for zipped_file entries (F2)
- verify: distinguish ZIP read errors from hash mismatches (F5)
- generate_pack: track seen_destinations with source hash (F7)
Batocera ep64/ep128.zip now correctly reported as MISSING
instead of false UNTESTED (resolved to .rom instead of .zip)
Critical: stream large file downloads (OOM fix), fix basename match
in auto_fetch, include hashes in pack grouping fingerprint, handle
not_in_zip status in verify, fix escaped quotes in batocera parser.
Important: deduplicate shared group includes, catch coreinfo network
errors, fix NODEDUP path component match, fix CI word splitting on
spaces, replace bare except Exception in 3 files.
Minor: argparse in list_platforms, specific exceptions in download.py.
