The options glance gains a Remove and put back group, the testing guide names test_install_removal, install.py declares _REPARSE_POINT once, and the type baseline drops three errors this change resolved.
validate_schemas needs jsonschema, which the build does not install.
test_launcher_evidence imported it at the top, so the suite without it
errored. The module is now named in the testing guide, and its
docstring no longer joins two clauses with a semicolon.
Generated and built pages read without the stylesheet, skipping hidden,
aria-hidden, scripts and styles: no step or figure text read twice, no
counter glued to a label, no empty picker, every laid out box spaced.
The build's filter box is compared with the generator's through node.
build_port's four archives carry install.py pinned by SHA-256, so they
change with the installer, not with the packs. The site now builds them
from its own commit and serves them under get/handheld/. Each get/ page
of Batocera, KNULLI, ROCKNIX and AmberELEC names its file, size, hash,
folder and menu, and get/linux-handhelds/ does the same for muOS, ArkOS,
dArkOS and JELOS. The installer's handheld section opens on a download
table, both tables written from sitehandheld.LAUNCHERS.
Phase 0 files snk-neogeo-pocket and neo-geo-pocket-color under snk-ngp and snk-ngpc. The No-Intro catalogs, their importer map and the campaign list now use those ids, the games index is regenerated, and the site's name table drops the eleven entries the new aliases leave unread.
--fetch also exported and stopped on the absent dist/truth before any
download, so CI skipped every exporter fidelity case and tolerated the
step. --refresh-cache only downloads: the step can no longer fail
unseen.
- The installer says "Every file on the list is in place." where it
said "Everything is in place.": a check covers the files the
collection holds, and the required ones it lacks follow.
- The FAQ, first install, legal and home pages state only what the
code shows (PlayStation 1 and Saturn run without a BIOS on some
emulators, save files are never touched, records are added).
- MinUI and MyMinUI show their own boot logos, and the Android,
Linux handheld and iPhone tiles show the Android robot, Tux and a
plain device icon, each credited in sources.json.
- Each Markdown copy, llms.txt and llms-full.txt name the commit
they were built from, version.json the current one, and the
answering rules tell assistants to fetch a stale copy again.
- The deploy lists the pages whose words changed (digests.json) and
posts them to IndexNow once the site is live.
make_demo.py records a second variant: the full-screen interface at the
640x480 screen of an R36S, on an ArkOS root made with bwrap, started as
the Tools menu launcher starts it (RETROBIOS_PAD=gptokeyb), driven by the
keys gptokeyb sends for the buttons. demo.json holds one entry per
variant with its alt text. No Windows variant: under pwsh on Linux the
installer's summary gives --dest /mnt/e/bios back.
The quick install box of Get your files gets an "On the device" tab with
the handheld recording, the terminal recording under the others but
Windows, and, under the text of each computer tab, a drawing of opening
the terminal and pasting (sitesteps.py, inline SVG in the theme's
colours, title and desc). The terminal steps name the physical action.
The README shows the GIF under the commands. The home page and Get your
files show the video through InstallDemo.astro: nothing is fetched until
it is on screen, reduced motion and Save-Data keep the poster with a play
button, and a description is read to screen readers.
llms.txt and an ARD manifest name the pages and the JSON API, and lead
an agent setting up a device to --for-games --required-only. Every page
registers four read-only WebMCP tools: the setup command, a hash lookup,
an emulator's files and the site search.
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.
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.
The v4.8 release publishes four images (Amlogic-ng, GameForce,
OdroidGoAdvance, OdroidM1, read from its asset names). The metapackage
(packages/sx05re/emuelec/package.mk:8-77) builds the S922X cores, dolphinSA
and mame only on Amlogic-ng, Amlogic-no, RK356x and OdroidM1, and removes
duckstation on the handhelds with a sed that replaces the first match only:
pcsx_rearmed, written twice, keeps its 64-bit build. Each package is mapped
to its cores by the .so or program its install step copies, PKG_ARCH is
applied as scripts/build:28-30 does, and es_systems.cfg is edited per
device as emuelec-emulationstation/package.mk:114-143 does. Amlogic-ng and
OdroidM1 list 124 cores, the handhelds 117.
test_twin_declaration_status and test_verify_data_dir_notice join the testing guide table, and test_large_file_cache calls unittest.main after its last class.
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.
Five generate_site helpers read ./emulators or ./platforms, and
has_release_pack read platforms relative to the working directory: run
from scripts/, a released setup's get page showed the No ZIP line.
siterender's fallbacks and sitediagrams read the repository too. All of
them now read siteinputs. platforms/_guides.yml stays the repository's:
siteguides loads it at import, before any flag is parsed.
files/?sha1= of a file the collection no longer holds answered that no
file the site knows has the hash. generate_db.py now records each sha1 a
rebuild drops in retired.json, with the day and the file in its place,
backfilled from the history since 0d586ef6b (4,139 files). The lookup
answers with it and leads to the successor's card.
testing-guide listed the generated artifacts without derivable.json and
the run samples of wiki/installer.md, and tools.md gave the manifest
command alone. The nightly's commit rules also had no place for the two
files its offline pipeline rewrites, so autorun stopped on them.
