2048 and gong (game), radio and video_processor (utility) and the test
cores (test) are libretro builds, but their role sat in type:, which
resolve_platform_cores filters on: all_libretro left them out, so no
platform resolved them and RetroArch's manifest named none, the
--installed-cores gap of issue 87. The role moves to role:, and type
stays libretro: type keeps saying how a profile is built and run, which
the resolver reads, while teaching the resolver that three role values
mean libretro would make type a classification again. The site and
coverage leave test cores out by role. fluidsynth, a library and no
libretro core, keeps type utility. A test keeps every buildbot core
named by RetroArch's resolution.
check_platform_folder.py, the script the site publishes, still accepted
a cut md5 by prefix. It now compares whole digests as Batocera does
(batocera-systems:1088), like verify since cut_md5_owner.
tests/__init__.py keeps a run offline, its scratch under tmp/ and its
installer cache its own, but only discover -s tests -t . imported it.
discover tests ran with RETROBIOS_OFFLINE unset, scratch on the /tmp
tmpfs and the user's real installer cache, the setting in which e2e
fixtures had written into the shared .cache/large. Every test module now
imports the package first, and a test fails on a module that does not.
test_verify_listing.py took its line with the previous commit.
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.
index.json called the catalog every published file, while the one-item
documents of emulators/, platforms/, systems/ and lookup/ are in none of
its items. The description and the data page now say so.
The --skip-packs help and the validate_pr fetch error were reworded, and a batocera page with no tab bar is plain Markdown that keeps the underscore entity, read here as a browser shows it.
The Data page said a SHA1 lookup was enough because MD5 and CRC32 declarations are filed under the collection file's SHA1 too. That holds only for a file the collection holds: 702 platform MD5s and 18 CRC32s are filed under their own value alone.
The site test modules were cut by review pass (test_site_r2_css to test_site_r5_wiki): the passes of one subject become one module, and the modules that stood alone take the name of what they hold. The installer test classes named after a review take the name of what they test. One test left --manifest set for the tests after it, which the new order showed: it now resets the sources.
