You can add the following .nvchecker.toml file:

[romvault]
source = "htmlparser"
url = "https://romvault.com/"
xpath = "(//a[contains(text(), 'RomVault V')])[1]"
prefix = "RomVault V"

Hey guys, previous maintainer here. Just wanted to apologize for the lack of updates. I honestly just totally forgot. If I maintain another package in the future I promise to be more diligent.

I have contacted the developer to try and fix the config file issues, I am holding off updating the package right now because of this.

@bhartshorn I see, it does indeed do that. Unsure if I can fix it on my end though. Try chown -R $USER /opt/romvault for a more secure way.

Hi, when trying to save a config file (open settings, click save), romvault fails with the following:

An Application Error has occurred.

EXCEPTION:
Source: mscorlib
Message: Access to the path "/opt/romvault/RomVault3cfg.xml" is denied.

I tried creating that file and chmodding it so it's read/writeable, then romvault fails to start. (presumably because the config file is empy)

Anyone have a workaround?

EDIT: changing the "/opt/romvault" directory to 0777 works, but it's not a great workaround. The right way to handle it is obviously an upstream contribution that saves configs/data to proper user-owned config locations...

LICENSE should be Apache License 2.0? https://github.com/RomVault/RVWorld/blob/master/LICENSE
