The published platform contract validates against platform.schema.json, which does not carry the resolver's per-entry system key. The two inheritance tests and the alias call check read the new entry shape, and the testing guide lists test_maker_folder_names.
Genesis Plus GX declares bios_U.sms and bios_E.sms with no hash. Only
.variants/ copies carried those names, so the name step served the Store
Display Unit BIOS and a 256 KB BIOS, while every platform pins v1.3 under
both. Two causes in generate_db: the v1.3 content's path was ZEsarUX's
sms.rom, which the resolver sets aside as another emulator's file, and a
name pinned by hash was refused when only variants carried it.
The scan now prefers a copy filed under its machine over one in an
emulator's own tree, and a name only variants carry can name the content
a hash pins it to.
Manifests: six contents change repo_path only (v1.3 SMS BIOS and five
ZEsarUX Spectrum ROMs, same sha1). On batocera, knulli, recalbox and
retrodeck the Genesis Plus GX bios_E.sms and bios_U.sms extras move from
the two variants to v1.3.
A profile entry without a hash matched the collection by name, but
only primary names were looked up, and which copy of identical bytes is
primary follows path order. After the refile, project64's
64DD_IPL_v12_JPN.bin was a copy, so 64dd_ipl_J.bin and 64dd_ipl_U.bin left
the name index. The lookup now counts every copy's name, and a name held
by two contents still names neither.
DraStic opens nds_bios_arm9.bin, nds_bios_arm7.bin and nds_firmware.bin and checks their size. Its nine aliases are in none of its binaries, and neither platform launcher passes them: ROCKNIX links the two BIOS names from its bios folder, and RetroPie runs DraStic from $md_conf_root/nds/drastic (drastic.sh:48), now a passes_path record. The collection answers DraStic's names with its DS dumps in generate_db, where repository names belong.
generate_db wrote a database without the aliases of a profile it could not read, and the MAME and FBNeo refreshes passed without it. Each now names the file and exits non-zero.
