OS: Slackware64-current
RetroArch-2017.01.03_faf939856_master-x86_64-1_git
mame2003-libretro-2016.12.10_6fcd8cd_master-x86_64-1_git

mame2003-libretro fails to open roms from the command line if a full path is not specified.

Works:

  • retroarch -L /usr/lib64/libretro/mame2003_libretro.so ./pacman.zip
  • retroarch -L /usr/lib64/libretro/mame2003_libretro.so roms/pacman.zip
  • Starting the game from the menu.

Fails:

  • retroarch -L /usr/lib64/libretro/mame2003_libretro.so pacman.zip

ERROR: required files are missing, the game cannot be run.

This does work in mame2000-libretro.

I suspect this has to do with something around here, but I'm not quite sure what do about it...

where is pacman.zip in this context? in the defined content_dir? or current directory?

Current directory. The problem is in the lacking trailing /.
