IMPORTANT

This version is in moderation and has not yet been approved. This means it doesn't show up under normal search.

  • Until approved, you should consider this package version unsafe - it could do very bad things to your system (it probably doesn't but you have been warned, that's why we have moderation).
  • This package version can change wildly over the course of moderation until it is approved. If you install it and it later has changes to this version, you will be out of sync with any changes that have been made to the package. Until approved, you should consider that this package version doesn't even exist.
  • You cannot install this package under normal scenarios. See How to install package version under moderation for more information.
  • There are also no guarantees that it will be approved.
WARNING

There are versions of this package awaiting moderation (possibly just this one). See the Version History section below.

zerial-rs232 has passed automated validation. It may have or may still fail other checks like testing (verification).
NOTE: No required changes that the validator checks have been flagged! It is appreciated if you fix other items, but only Requirements will hold up a package version from approval. A human review could still turn up issues a computer may not easily find.

Guidelines

Guidelines are strong suggestions that improve the quality of a package version. These are considered something to fix for next time to increase the quality of the package. Over time Guidelines can become Requirements. A package version can be approved without addressing Guideline comments but will reduce the quality of the package.

  • The package script downloads a file outside of using built-in helpers. Scripts should use the built-in helpers to download files. More...
Notes

Notes typically flag things for both you and the reviewer to go over. Sometimes this is the use of things that may or may not be necessary given the constraints of what you are trying to do and/or are harder for automation to flag for other reasons. Items found in Notes might be Requirements depending on the context. A package version can be approved without addressing Note comments.

  • The package maintainer field (owners) matches the software author field (authors) in the nuspec. The reviewer will ensure that the package maintainer is also the software author. More...

zerial-rs232 has passed automated package testing (verification). The next step in the process is package scanning.
Please visit https://gist.github.com/choco-bot/0ee2982e1812838e0c95b17dbe630e0b for details.
This is an FYI only. There is no action you need to take.

zerial-rs232 has passed automated virus scanning.

AdmiringWorm (reviewer) on 25 Apr 2024 08:57:52 +00:00:

There are a few things that needs to be fixed up before we can consider approving this package.

  1. The specified packageSourceUrl is incorrect, this should be a URL to the hosted location that contains the source of the package that you pushed. Not the source of the software.
  2. Do not use the cmdlets Set-ExecutionPolicy and Invoke-WebRequest in the package.
  3. Do not install unrelated programs, you are installing a local copy of the .NET runtime, instead these should be dependencies of the package. There are several to choose from in this case. The one you are interested in is probably the dotnet-6.0-sdk (may depend on what your application expects though)
  4. The uninstall script is not a functioning uninstaller for your program. Fill fill it out properly so it will uninstall your application.
Description

Zerial is a utility that allows to develop test hardware and interact with it from our general software in binary mode. Zerial was built with Avalonia and Net6 and published as a self-contained application; therefore, it doesn't need dotnet to be installed. Due to that, it has a size of around 100 MB. But unlike of Electron and Python applications, it utilizes resources carefully.

In cases where actual malware is found, the packages are subject to removal. Software sometimes has false positives. Moderators do not necessarily validate the safety of the underlying software, only that a package retrieves software from the official distribution point and/or validate embedded software against official distribution point (where distribution rights allow redistribution).

Chocolatey Pro provides runtime protection from possible malware.
