Batocera, RetroBat, Recalbox and ROCKNIX offer some emulators both as a
libretro core and standalone. Filed as standalone only, the libretro
layout was dropped: libretro Dolphin had no dolphin-emu/Sys/GC files.
Platforms now name dual-mode emulators and each gets both layouts.
System.dat pins the 2 KiB X1 font as xmil/IPLROM.X1T, where xmil reads
a 32 KiB Turbo IPL. A held copy of the exact size a profile declares now
proves its claim against a file of another size, so the existence packs
ship the IPL. The font's duplicate under the IPL name is removed.
slots ended a mistyped --platform on a traceback; generate_truth,
refresh_data_dirs and auto_fetch exited 0 having done nothing for it.
All six now stop on require_platform before any work.
argparse completed a prefix into the only flag starting with it:
slots.py --emulator read profiles from a directory named after the
emulator and reported nothing, and pipeline.py --all built every pack
variant. Every parser now refuses an abbreviation.
slots dropped the last extension of any .variants/ name, so a
variant stored under its plain name (63 of them, aes.zip among
them) was not the family of its primary and a platform declaring
both at one path would read as a collision. The database already
stripped an eight-hex suffix only; both now read one function.
A filename-agnostic profile ships its scan candidates, never its named
entries, and the gap report skips it whole. Its entries no longer
arbitrate a destination: RetroArch keeps the GameIndex.yaml it declares
instead of the ARMSX2 copy.
