The launcher and studio ship as Retro Launcher and Retro Studio now,
from the RetroPortingToolKit org, so the old product name is gone from
display text, documentation and release asset filenames.
The split is by case, and it is not cosmetic. CamelCase RetComM was
always the product; lowercase retcomm and RETCOMM_ are identifiers --
the C++ namespace, the binaries, the data directories, the CMake and
environment variables, the Cloudflare service names, the readme markers.
Renaming those would orphan existing installs for no benefit, so they
are untouched: 1101 lowercase retcomm and 205 RETCOMM_ still stand in
the launcher alone.
Four things are deliberately still spelled RetComM, and three of them
would have been real breakage:
- RetComM-Data is CamelCase but it is a directory on disk --
<exe_dir>\RetComM-Data\{runtime,config,data} for a portable install.
Renaming it strands every portable user's config, toolchains and
catalog cache.
- TechnicallyComputers/RetComM-Launcher in readme_has_launcher() is the
historical half of a both-slugs test. Renaming it makes it a duplicate
of the line above and sends every port built before the transfer back
to reporting its launcher section missing.
- _LEGACY_LAUNCHER_RE matched "^## RetComM Launcher". A sweep renamed it,
which would have silently stopped it matching every README already out
there; it now accepts both headings.
- The portable-stub lookup gained the pre-rename filenames back as
fallbacks, because old zips stay on the releases page and a rollback
downloads one.
Release assets become Retro-Launcher-* / Retro-Studio-*. That is safe
for installed clients: pick_launcher_asset() gates on *linux*/*windows*/
*macos* plus extension and arch, not on the product name, and the
Windows portable stub is identified by its RCM1 trailer rather than its
filename.

recomp-net, retcomm-rbengine (now rbengine), retcomm-toolchains (now
RetroPorting-Toolchains), the catalog and the launcher moved from
TechnicallyComputers to the RetroPortingToolKit org. GitHub still
redirects the old repo URLs, so nothing is broken today — but this repo
is what every port inherits its .gitmodules from, so the old owner
propagates into each new clone until it is fixed here.
.gitmodules now names the new URLs. The toolchain repo is updated in the
CI action default, the codegen host, fetch_toolchain.sh, toolchain_pack
and package_setup_host, and the scaffolder's recomp-net / rbengine
defaults follow.
Two things the mechanical sweep would have missed:
- render_launcher_block() held a second copy of the launcher slug split
across two string literals, so a search for the full slug did not see
it and every regenerated README kept the dead owner. It is now derived
from LAUNCHER_REPO, which is the only place the slug lives.
- readme_has_launcher() matched one exact slug. Pointed at the new one
alone it would report every port built before the transfer as missing
its launcher section, and append a second copy to any README carrying
neither the markers nor a "## RetComM Launcher" heading. It now
accepts both.
The scaffolder's default GitHub owner for new ports becomes
RetroPortingToolKit. Existing ports are unaffected — they carry their
own owner in the README and remote.
psxrecomp, snesrecomp and recomp-ui did not move and still point at
mstan. Submodule paths (lib/recomp-net, lib/retcomm-rbengine) are
unchanged: they are pinned by every port and are not repo slugs.

zipfile.extractall() ignores the mode stored in ZipInfo.external_attr, so
on POSIX hosts every file in cmake-clang-v1 is extracted 0644. The pack is
then unusable and ensure-toolchain fails with:
Toolchain cmake probe failed (.../cmake-clang-v1/1.0.14/bin/cmake):
[Errno 13] Permission denied
Restore the recorded mode after extraction. Zips built on Windows record
no Unix mode, in which case the extracted default already applies, and the
whole block is skipped on nt.
Verified against a zip recording 0755: extractall alone yields 0644 and
os.access(X_OK) False; with this change 0755 and True.
The cache was accepted forever once any cmake ran: default min version was
empty, so a Deck (or any host) that cached a pre-sysroot pack (<=1.0.13)
never re-downloaded and kept compiling against host headers — absent on
stock SteamOS — with objects that mis-link after a pack upgrade
(__isoc23_strtoul).
Both resolvers now default the floor to 1.0.14, the first pack with the
Linux build sysroot. This is a framework floor, not a per-title pin:
RETCOMM_TOOLCHAIN_MIN_VERSION still overrides in either direction, and
"0" / "off" / "none" disables it (pre-floor behavior).
- tools/toolchain_pack.py: DEFAULT_MIN_VERSION in default_min_version();
the ensure_toolchain stale-probe passes min_version="0" so its log line
still sees below-floor packs.
- host: toolchain_min_version() mirrors the same default and disable
tokens; below-floor caches now fail host_portable_cmake_ready and the
wizard downloads /releases/latest.
Verified: Python — floor/override/disable semantics, real v1.0.10 pack
rejected and v1.0.14 accepted, an isolated cache holding only v1.0.10 no
longer resolves (visible again with floor disabled), full cache resolves
to v1.0.14. C — same matrix via a unit harness incl. manifest-less dirs;
both platform branches syntax-checked.

(cherry picked from commit 00f0a9a9bb)
Probe cmake --version; if the cache or latest pointer is unusable, clear
the bad pointer and stamp, then re-download (or install from zip) so
Generate & rebuild can recover without manual cleanup.

Install into versioned <tag>/ with latest as a pointer (not extract-into-
latest), honor RETCOMM_DATA_HOME/TOOLCHAIN_CACHE, and search both XDG and
~/.local/share so install.sh packs resolve during ensure/rebuild.

Floor ensure-toolchain at 1.0.4 (libxml2 + clang.cfg -fuse-ld=lld) and
prepend pack lib/ to LD_LIBRARY_PATH when activating the toolchain.
