Abstract: The generalized packing--covering conjecture of Elimelech, Firer and Schwartz asserts that, for every linear code $\mathcal{C}$ and every admissible order $t$, the $t$-th generalized Hamming weight $d_t(\mathcal{C})$ and the $t$-th generalized covering radius $R_t(\mathcal{C})$ satisfy $d_t(\mathcal{C})\le 2R_t(\mathcal{C})+2$. We give a computer-assisted proof of the conjecture for every linear code over every finite field and every admissible order. Combining a parity-check reformulation of the conjecture, bounds on the length of putative counterexamples, and successive puncturing arguments, we settle all orders $t\ge 32$ and reduce the remaining orders to finitely many parameter tuples, which we exclude by an exact computer verification.
