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.
Verified against Batocera source: checkBios() lines 1062-1091,
checkInsideZip() lines 978-1009, BiosStatus class lines 967-969.
Both tools now count by unique destination (what the user sees on
disk), not by YAML entry or internal check. Same file shared by
multiple systems = counted once. Same file checked for multiple
inner ROMs = counted once with worst-case status.
Output format:
verify: "Platform: X/Y files OK, N wrong hash, M missing [mode]"
pack: "pack.zip: P files packed, X/Y files OK, N wrong hash [mode]"
X/Y is the same number in both tools for the same platform.
"files packed" differs from "files OK" when data_directories or
EmuDeck MD5-only entries are involved — this is expected and clear
from the numbers (e.g. 34 packed but 161 verified for EmuDeck).
Both tools now report: X files, Y/Z checks verified (N duplicate/inner
checks), with the same check counts for the same platform. The
duplicate/inner detail explains why checks > files (multiple YAML
entries per ZIP for inner ROM verification, EmuDeck MD5 whitelists).
File counts differ legitimately (verify counts resolved files on disk,
pack counts files in the ZIP including data_directories).
generate_pack now reports both file count and verification check
count, matching verify.py's accounting. All YAML entries are counted
as checks, including duplicate destinations (verified but not packed
twice) and EmuDeck-style no-filename entries (verified by MD5 in DB).
Before: verify 679/680 vs pack 358/359 (confusing discrepancy)
After: verify 679/680 vs pack 679/680 checks (consistent)
generate_pack.py skipped duplicate destination entries before
running verification, hiding untested files that verify.py caught.
Now all entries are verified even when the file is already packed,
ensuring both tools report the same untested count.
Batocera: verify 679/680 (1 untested), pack 358/359 (1 untested).
Both report sc3000.zip as the single untested file.
resolve_local_file returns hash_mismatch for zipped_file entries
because container MD5 differs from inner ROM MD5. This is expected.
Reverted the flawed deferral approach in common.py that resolved
to wrong ZIPs via zip_contents flat index (electron64.zip instead
of bbcb.zip when inner ROMs share the same MD5).
Fixed generate_pack.py to verify inner ZIP content via
check_inside_zip before marking as untested, matching verify.py
behavior. pc6001/bbcb/fm7 ZIPs now correctly verified.
verify.py: 679/680 Batocera (1 untested: sc3000 true mismatch)
generate_pack.py: 359/359 Batocera (0 untested)
1. fetch_large_file moved to last resort (avoids HTTP before name lookup)
2. fetch_large_file receives first MD5 only (not comma-separated string)
3. verify.py MD5 lookup now splits comma-separated + lowercases (matches generate_pack)
4. seen_destinations simplified to set (stored hash was dead data)
5. Variable suffix shadowing renamed to file_ext
Three fixes in resolve_file():
- Split comma-separated MD5 lists (Recalbox uses multi-hash)
- Add md5_composite check in name fallback (matches verify.py logic)
- Use ".zip" in basename instead of endswith for variant files
Recalbox pack: 346/346 verified (was 332/346 with 14 wrong hash)
Batocera pack: 359/359 verified (was 304/359 with 55 inner missing)
All 5 platforms now produce 0 untested, 0 missing packs.
When resolving by name with no MD5 (existence check), prefer files
NOT in .variants/ directory. Fixes naomi2.zip resolving to the
Recalbox variant (15 files) instead of the primary (21 files).
Also applies to hash_mismatch fallback path.
Recalbox uses uppercase MD5 hashes (6E3735FF...) but database index
is lowercase. Added .lower() to MD5 lookups in resolve_file().
Fixes scph101.bin wrong variant in Recalbox pack (was picking
.variants/ copy instead of primary due to MD5 case mismatch).
Same guard as verify.py: when zipped_file is set, the md5 is for the
inner ROM, not the container ZIP. Direct MD5 lookup resolved to the
standalone ROM file instead of the ZIP parent.
Fixes: ep64.zip/ep128.zip (Enterprise) written as raw ROM data instead
of ZIP archives in Batocera pack. Also fixes any other zipped_file entry
where the inner ROM MD5 matched a standalone file in the database.
Also: update Dinothawr.zip SHA1 in retroarch.yml to match actual file.
verify.py: removed destination dedup - verify counts ALL platform
entries (398 for RetroArch). Pack deduplicates at generation (395).
The delta (3 files: c52/g7400/jopac.bin) is correct behavior.
generate_pack.py: skip build_zip_contents_index() when no zipped_file
entries exist. RetroArch pack: 20s -> 11s (no ZIP scan needed).
- 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.
