⚠️⚠️⚠️

When the download link is dead just report as outdated, it's not an error it's just a new version is available.

I keep getting this error curl: (3) Illegal characters found in URL ==> ERROR: Failure while downloading https://downloads.nessus.org/nessus3dl.php?file=Nessus-7.0.2-fc20.x86_64.rpm&licence_accept=yes&t= -> Could not get the download token, '_retoken' might need an update

Don't know if it's relevant but I use zsh

changing the download file in the pkgbuild to "https://tenable-downloads-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/download/file/7494/Nessus-7.0.1-fc20.x86_64.rpm" solves the issue

It seems that _gettoken() is no longer working. I'm receiving: " -> Could not get the download token, '_retoken' might need an update"

I modified the current files with Larivact's suggestions (except 4.) and did some other minor changes: https://www.sendspace.com/file/pdd284 @RoestVrijStaal: Fedora should be more up-to-date than RHEL or CentOS. RHEL 7 doesn't support 32-bit installations by the way.

Some suggestions: 1) Change the Upstream URL to https://www.tenable.com/products/nessus-vulnerability-scanner as https://www.nessus.org appears to be down. 2) Change the description to: "A proprietary vulnerability scanner available free of charge for personal use." 3) Since the curl to fetch the token is silent, echo "fetching token" before invoking _gettoken, so that users aren't confused if the site takes to load. 4) post_install should mention /opt/nessus/sbin/nessuscli 5) post_remove should echo "You might want to remove the remaining files in /opt/nessus/."

Why is the Fedora RPM used? It lacks a i386 build, which is impractical when changing the PKGBUILD to the right architecture :/ Did anyone had a successful install by using the Red Hat ES7 / CentOS' RPM instead?

@xsmile Found and fixed the problem. Thanks for the report!

@MattWoelk: The lib directory in the package is empty and is missing the systemd service file. Thanks in advance for updating.
