verify_pack now verifies files against data directory caches and
validates rebuilt MAME ZIPs by comparing inner ROM CRC32s against
source. Reduces false untracked count from 6242 to 0 for RetroArch.
Replaces mode: standalone hack with load_from: save_dir on Panda3DS
files. The load_from field documents which libretro directory callback
provides the base path (system_dir default, save_dir, content_dir).
Pack generator and cross-reference skip files not targeting system_dir.
Group archived files by archive unit in find_undeclared_files instead
of reporting individual ROMs. Add path-based fallback for descriptive
names (e.g. "SeaBIOS (128 KB)" resolves via path: bios.bin). Update
_collect_extras to use archive name for pack resolution. Regenerate
database with new bios files. 6 new E2E tests covering archive
in_repo, missing archives, descriptive names, and pack extras.
batch re-profiled nekop2 through pokemini. mupen64plus renamed to
mupen64plus_next. new profiles: nes, mupen64plus_next.
validation functions (_build_validation_index, check_file_validation)
consolidated in common.py — single source of truth for verify.py
and generate_pack.py. pipeline 100% consistent on all 6 platforms.
moved _mame_clones.json out of bios/ (was indexed by generate_db.py
as BIOS file). clone resolution now in common.py resolve_local_file
so all tools (verify, pack, cross_reference) resolve clones
transparently. removed duplicate clone code from generate_pack.py.
added error handling on os.remove in dedup.py. consistency check
now passes for Batocera/EmuDeck/Lakka/RetroArch (4/6 platforms).
all ZIP files (neogeo.zip, pgm.zip, etc.) are rebuilt with fixed
metadata before packing: sorted filenames, epoch timestamps, fixed
permissions, deflate level 9. same ROM atoms = same ZIP hash, always.
115 internal ZIPs verified identical across two independent builds.
enables version-agnostic ZIP assembly from ROM atoms indexed by CRC32.
post-generation verification: reopen each ZIP, hash every file,
check against database.json. inject manifest.json inside each pack
(self-documenting: path, sha1, md5, size, status per file).
generate SHA256SUMS.txt alongside packs for download verification.
validation index now uses sets for hashes and sizes to support
multiple valid ROM versions (MT-32 v1.04-v2.07, CM-32L variants).
69 tests pass, pipeline complete.
add --emulator, --system, --standalone, --list-emulators, --list-systems
to verify.py and generate_pack.py. packs are RTU with data directories,
regional BIOS variants, and archive support.
validation: field per file (size, crc32, md5, sha1) with conflict
detection. by_path_suffix index in database.json for regional variant
resolution via dest_hint. restructure GameCube IPL to regional subdirs.
66 E2E tests, full pipeline verified.
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.
- fix KeyError in compute_coverage (generate_readme, generate_site)
- fix comma-separated MD5 handling in generate_pack check_inside_zip
- fix _verify_file_hash to handle multi-MD5 for large files
- fix external downloads not tracked in seen_destinations/file_status
- fix tar path traversal in _is_safe_tar_member (refresh_data_dirs)
- fix predictable tmp path in download.py
- fix _sanitize_path to filter "." components
- remove blanket data_dir suppression in find_undeclared_files
- remove blanket data_dir suppression in cross_reference
- add status_counts to verify_platform return value
- add md5_composite cache for repeated ZIP hashing
_collect_emulator_extras() now uses find_undeclared_files() from
verify.py instead of manual emulator name lists. This gives:
- System-overlap matching (automatic, no manual config needed)
- mode: standalone filtering (no standalone files in libretro packs)
- type: launcher filtering (no launcher BIOS in system_dir)
- data_directories coverage (no false gaps)
- hle_fallback propagation
- Works for ANY platform (same logic for RetroArch, Batocera, etc.)
RetroArch --include-extras now discovers 91 extra files from
emulator profiles automatically.
Batocera uses exactly 2 statuses (batocera-systems:967-969):
- MISSING: file not found on disk
- UNTESTED: file present but hash not confirmed
Removed the wrong_hash/untested split — both are UNTESTED per
Batocera's design (file accepted by emulator, just not guaranteed
correct). Fixed duplicate count bug from rename. Reason detail
(MD5 mismatch vs inner file not found) preserved in the message.
