Verify: Failed to parse Redump.org data on GameCube games

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.
Trying to use Redump.org Status in Verify only gives a "Failed to parse Redump.org data" message. Tried it on five different GameCube games in my games list and it always fails. CRC32/MD5/SHA-1 settings do not seem to affect it, besides graying out the Redump.org Status if they're all unselected.
Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.

In the dolphin-emu user folder, there should be a file called Cache/Redump/gc.zip (after you have attempted to use the Redump.org feature at least once). Could you upload that file?

I think it's a bit split up the way the user folder works in Linux, I hadn't yet tried rooting around in the generated dolphin-emu files on Linux before now. I checked ~/.local/share/dolphin-emu/, ~/.cache/dolphin-emu/, and ~/.config/dolphin-emu/ and none of them contained a Redump folder or a gc.zip file. If I'm missing another place I should look I'll check there too.

I have to assume that that means something is going wrong when Dolphin tries to create the folder and file... Try creating an empty folder named "Redump" in the ~/.cache/dolphin-emu/ folder, then run the verification again.

I've created a pull request that automatically creates that folder, which should fix the problem: https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/pull/8429
Please test it to see whether it works on your computer too.

That PR solved the issue, thanks. It ends up making the folder in ~/.local/share/dolphin-emu/Cache/Redump/ though instead of ~/.cache/dolphin-emu/ if that was unintentional.
