I can't get M.A..M.E to see my roms

I have the same problem as the author.
OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, 1.5 years ago mame 0.210 worked fine, but now on 0.226 when starting mame does not see any available rom.
When launching mame with the absolute rom path parameter, it doesn’t write that it doesn’t find files that are all in this archive.

P.S. I solved the problem.
In menu mame you need to go into the directory settings and specify the location of the directory with roms.

I saw another problem.
Previously, the cfg directory, which stores the game settings, was created and read from ~/.mame.
Now it is created and read from the same directory from which mame was started.

Maybe a tip for others with M.A.M.E.

After you have it working tell yast to not update mame.

Sooner or later updating mame will make the roms stop working.
