installation with empty zrif - pkg (local license)

[tomazzz369]

installation with empty zrif:
if i want to install pkg (local license) without zrif tool returns error - installation failed unfortunately when download is finished. better idea would be check pkg license type before installation

delete files if installation failed:
if installation failed all files are still present in ux0:pkgi/titleid and since we can't resume/reinstall after installation failed (download starts from the begining) they are not needed

First one is already fixed in #38. It will be included in next release.

Second item will be improved in #11 and #22.
Not sure about automatically deleting files. It can take a long time. Deleting many small files can take minutes... It will be super annoying to wait a few minutes after getting error at installation. I'll think if I can resume just installation process.

but this is nothing to do with TheRadziu issue. if pkg require license file and zrif is empty pkgi returns error before installation. we only waste of time for downloading game which will not work anyway for that reason i suggested to check pkg license type before download starts

Hmm.. why would you leave zrif empty if pkg requires license?
I don't know if there is a way to automatically check if pkg file requires license or not. So currently I implemented simply not creating rif file if zrif is empty. You should leave it empty only if rif doesn't require license.

if i remember correctly first entry/item in pkg info is license type: 00000002 local - require license, 0000000D free license type, not require zrif/license (provided in temp.bin if i remember correctly)

Doesn't 13 also means install as "demo/trial"? I see a lot of pkg files for which we have zRIF strings, but they have DRM type 13. In total there are 232 pkg files on NPS with type 13.

And a lot of them have zRIF string. Here's one, for example: UP9000-PCSA00006_00-SSDELTA000000000.
The one you have also has zRIF: UP4151-PCSE00039_00-FOOSBALL2012VITA.

I just tried installing these two without work.bin file. And they refreshed correctly in VitaShell. I'm very confused now...

But I guess adding extra check (if type=2 then fail the download early) won't harm. That I can do.

DRM type 13 is 0x0000000D (hex). means DRM Type free

both games you have mention have drm type free (13) and you can install them using vitashell without zrif/license, you can't install for example 10 Second Ninja X

http://zeus.dl.playstation.net/cdn/EP4395/PCSB00963_00/EP4395-PCSB00963_00-G000000000000885_bg_1_c0400230f1dcc3f446d2e455e4d2ccff5723ab13.pkg

why drm type free (13) packages have zrif?
thats because originall installation process always require license for installation. license is created probably in temp.dat with pdb project for all packages drm type local (02)/free (13) when you starts download game from store and use this license for installation

why vitashell don't need license for installation pkg drm type free (13)?
vitashell need license too, but if work.bin (license) is missing, vitashell uses license provided inside pkg drm type free (13) (sce_sys\package\temp.bin). off course if you don't use nonpdrm plugin you will get demo version, because license inside pkg is for demo and is provide only in packages drm type free (13)
