[aur-general] Please remove cov-analysis-bin (no download)
Pleare remove https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/cov-analysis-bin/ from the AUR. I created the package and was the last maintainer. However, upstream removed any possibility to download even the binary of the tool without logging in. So there is no sense to include it in the AUR anymore. Note that https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/coverity-submit/ is still available since that tool is open source. That tool only makes sense when one also installs cov-analysis from some other source (manually, without AUR), though. -- JonnyJD

It may be kept in AUR. For example, some packages, such as vmd, ttf-win7- fonts, require a preload of source files. In this case to install a package you need download tarball, download source files and build and install it using makepkg (not automatical tools like packer or yaourt). Do you still want to remove this package? -- С уважением, Е.Алексеев. Sincerely yours, E.Alekseev. e-mail: darkarcanis@mail.ru ICQ: 407-398-235 Jabber: arcanis@jabber.ru

Yes. the package does nothing more than extracting the tarball to /opt. -- JonnyJD

Okay, as you wish. The package had been removed. -- С уважением, Е.Алексеев. Sincerely yours, E.Alekseev. e-mail: darkarcanis@mail.ru ICQ: 407-398-235 Jabber: arcanis@jabber.ru

Thank you. For anybody thinking otherwise: The old PKGBUILD will still be available here: https://github.com/JonnyJD/PKGBUILDs/blob/c489e2cd380e2bc0b1f7a73eb08887f4c0...
