A release asset absent from the checkout is omitted from the install
list. That omission named only the first core reading it: harm1.wad,
action2.wad and delaweare.wad named gzdoom, so install.py --target
rpi1, where lzdoom runs, kept nothing the builder's list for rpi1
omits. The omission now names the cores of the claims folded onto the
entry too.
The first profile reading a requirement hosts the others' claims,
and two ways of dropping the host dropped them too. DraStic brings its
own usrcheat.dat, and DSPerate, which reads the same file, lost it
wherever DraStic runs. A missing file was recorded for its first
reader alone: NAPALM.GRP named Raze, Data.rsdk Sonic Mania. A list
built for a board without that reader carried what the full list
left out, and install.py --target disagreed with the builder on
ROCKNIX, KNULLI, Batocera and RetroPie boards.
Since ddafc2ff4 a pack's manifest.json holds install_list and
targets, which install.py reads with the pack alone. The pack schema
refused both. It now names them, and validate_schemas.py checks each
against the install and target manifest schemas.
bundled_only.py --strict listed 14 copies in bios/Commodore/Amiga/
.variants that only the per-build amiberry profiles reach, each through
a bundled entry. Four are the AROS ROMs, and those entries say
not_bundled_on: ROCKNIX, AmberELEC and Recalbox package amiberry
without them, so their packs bring them from the collection. The tool
read bundled alone and listed them, and now keeps a copy a
not_bundled_on entry reaches. The ten others (WHDLoad, boot-data.zip,
whdload_db.xml of 5.6.5 to 8.0.0) no platform, profile or manifest
needs: removed. database.json is to be regenerated with the
collection's release assets.
The test's premise was stale, not the profile: openmsx.yml now writes
share/systemroms below openMSX's user folder, the file pool's first
place, and each platform's binding moves it. The test keeps guarding
the same thing: every entry under share/systemroms, and on RetroBat,
which sets OPENMSX_HOME to bios/openmsx, placed in the
openMSX/share/systemroms folder its own list declares.
AHashScanLabelNamesNoOtherDump read openmsx-libretro's rs232.rom as
fmsx's name for another dump: share/extensions/rs232.xml:18-22 names
it, so it joins CODE_NAMED. test_standalone_links called unittest.main()
before the amiberry classes, which a direct run skipped.
- The installer speaks without "you": the first screen asks "Where
to install?", rows read "Copy the BIOS files from an old card or a
folder", a close match reads "Close matches: ...". The handheld
launchers and their port text follow, and the pronoun guard no
longer lists any installer message.
- A setup that runs as an app opens on its one-line command, the
folder table after it; a setup that runs on its own device keeps
the network folder first, which its ZIP route needs.
- The home steps say what to do: "Its page gives one line to copy",
"Paste it, press Enter".
The README ran 211 lines and 2,000 words: five commands with options,
an 18-row download table, coverage figures and the build commands, all
before the help. It now says what the project does, gives the line that
installs for Windows and for the rest, shows it, lists the six ZIPs and
the setups that install by command, and leads to the site, where the
figures and every option live. The build commands sit in a closed block.
No personal pronoun is left in its text.
--for-games --required-only on a dArkOS card from a computer kept every
file of the list: --dest skipped the card's detection, so its rom
folders were never found. The games part beside the BIOS folder now
names them. The manifest marks a data tree every core runs without
(optional), and --required-only leaves it out: one GBA and one SNES game
took FBNeo's cheats and samples, 3,472 files no game opened.
Six places read an md5 shorter than 32 digits, each with its own bound.
digest_verdict accepted any prefix down to one digit, while Batocera
compares the whole string (batocera-systems:1088). A cut value now names
a dump only when one held md5 starts with it (cut_md5_owner, read by the
scraper, the resolver and --from-md5), and every verdict compares whole
digests.
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.
gitignored_paths read a missing file as an empty registry: nothing to
restore, nothing unsatisfied, exit 0 with every release asset absent.
The run now stops with the path it could not read.
--db databse.json, with database.json in the same folder, was told to run
generate_db --force --output databse.json: a rescan of the whole
collection into a second file under the typo. load_database now names the
closest .json in that folder first, and gives the rebuild command only
when none is close.
The closing summary of verify --all grouped platform to names: sfiii2a.zip,
missing on 15 platforms, was printed 15 times on a 1 060-character line and
counted 24 files for 10 distinct ones. It now groups by file and names the
platforms by the shorter side (every platform but BizHawk, MinUI, MiSTer
FPGA).
Only generate_pack.py and pipeline.py checked the interpreter. verify.py,
slots.py, validate_pr.py, cross_reference.py and the probe tools started
under 3.8 and stopped halfway on a str.removeprefix AttributeError. The
check now lives in common.py, which every build script imports, and in
core_probe.py and region_check.py, which do not. generate_site.py imports
common before siterender, which raised a TypeError at load under 3.8.
Every signature carries annotations and nothing read them. mypy 1.18.2
over install.py and scripts/ reports 993 errors today, among them the
six pack helpers typed zipfile.ZipFile that every caller also hands a
PackRecord. The errors sit in mypy-baseline.txt and the schema job fails
on any error outside it, or on an entry that no longer occurs. Third-party
packages are left out so the result does not depend on the machine: 6 s
locally, run twice and on 3.12 and 3.13 with the same errors.
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.
Every source link on the site leads to a path the source record saw at
a commit. The Build file row linked pin_build files unchecked, eight of
them at commits the record did not hold. build_source_paths now records
the build files read at a commit, and the row links only those: a tag
can move and stays plain text. The record run also picked up two cited
paths it had not seen before (pom2 CMakeLists.txt, pcem configure.ac).
The manifest guard compared repo_path with database.json only, so a
git mv under bios/ committed without regenerating either left both
naming the old path and every test passed. A new test requires each
database path to be tracked or gitignored, and a manifest entry whose
repo_path git neither holds nor ignores now fails as untracked.
264 TemporaryDirectory() and mkdtemp() calls without dir= wrote to the
/tmp tmpfs, and a full tmpfs failed modules no change touched. The test
package now points tempfile and TMPDIR at tmp/tests, and sets
GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES there so git run in a scratch directory does
not find the checkout above it. The package test asserts both.
test_a_targeted_export_reads_a_full_model runs pipeline.py --offline
--with-export, which is now refused when .cache/upstream-native/ is
empty, as in any fresh checkout. The test is about the truth directory
the export reads.
fetch_large_file verified a cached copy and returned its name, which another run replaces when the release serves a re-upload: the caller then packed bytes it never verified. The returned path is now a hard link under .cache/large/.by-sha1/<sha1>/, kept only if it holds the inode that was hashed. Revisions no name holds are dropped a day later. restore_large_files hashes each copy before moving it into place.
pin_build, in 36 profiles, names the platform repository, revision, file
and variable that hold a pin_frozen revision, and the site read none of
it: the Revision held row printed the file as plain text. A Build file
row links each one at the revision it was read at.
A .variants/ copy downloads as advision.zip.1c086064, its storage name:
raw.githubusercontent.com sends no Content-Disposition and the download
attribute is ignored across origins. A card whose download name differs
from the file name now says what to save it as, at a glance.
Every card read "Not collectable" and the gaps page listed 259 entries as
acknowledged gaps verified from source code. unsourceable: only keeps a
same-named file from being served in the entry's place, and each entry
stays an acquisition target (wiki/profiling.md). The section now names
the catalog or romset that lists each file, from the provenance report
built with the profiles' needs: XM7's KANJI2.ROM is in No-Intro and in
MAME's fm7740sx.zip. The old anchor still leads to the section.
libmt32emu scans the ROM folder and identifies every file with identifyROMFile (src/midi/mt32_lasynth_model.cpp:68-91 at fa1856c0), and the Nuked SC-55 plugin loads with RomLoader::Hashing, matching SHA-256 against its table. The 50 MT-32 and Sound Canvas entries now carry found_by: content, so the truth no longer says dosbox-staging opens their labels.
The entry documents the pcsx2x6 component, whose FindBiosImage (pcsx2/ps2/BiosTools.cpp:268-291 at 583f0e90) takes the first 4 to 8 MB romdir image whatever its name. pcsx2x6.yml already said so, and the RetroBat truth gave the file two identities. The guard no longer needs an agnostic flag to read an entry.
FindBiosImage (pcsx2/ps2/BiosTools.cpp:278-302 under app/src/main/cpp/pcsx2 at bda532f3) keeps the first 2 to 8 MB file with a romdir, whatever its name, as upstream PCSX2 does. The guard reads entry-level agnostic flags too, which is how it surfaced.
FindArcadeBiosFor (pcsx2/ps2/BiosTools.cpp:366-419 at 7f914418) scans the BIOS folder for 2 to 8 MB COH-H images and picks by EXTINFO serial, never by name. r27v1602f.8g, r27v1602f.7d and COH-H31000.BIN now carry found_by: content, and the truth no longer says armsx2 opens those names. The guard covers the 2 MB lower bound.
