⚠️⚠️⚠️

When the download link is dead just report as outdated, it's not an error it's just a new version is available.

Thank you for the quick update. Here is another PKGBUILD that adds a menu entry and has some minor corrections: PKGBUILD: http://hastebin.com/raw/faxumukiro nessus.desktop: http://hastebin.com/raw/pagapugabi

Automatic downloading works again. @xsmile, your suggestions were wonderful. I implemented them all. Thank you!

@MattWoelk: Here are some modified package components with following changes: - automatic download of the Fedora package - excluded nessus.install from the source file array - nessus.install now contains most of the control commands from the Debian package - LICENSE file updated LICENSE: http://hastebin.com/raw/burepavoxu nessus.install: http://hastebin.com/raw/zeleyilivo PKGBUILD: http://hastebin.com/raw/yokoqixope nessuscli works correctly now and there is no need to manually extract the tools archive.

Downloading is manual for now, as the old way of getting the ID for the download is broken due to an upstream change.

Script has been Changed continue to use the current one or use this if you wish. * Checks from three different places to verify latest version as they haven't updated the version in the change-log/whats-new-in-nessus page on the website * it only needs to grab the first two digits of version i.e 6.7 and the third digit is found using for loop because on this version the version on the pages are 6.7 and not 6.7.0 which corrupts the download if the third digit isn't in the version * checks against the md5sum and if its incorrect it gives an error message and exits

Since you hard coded it :) why don't you add if the file isn't downloaded due to server changes, that it echos out there has been an error please email or add comment on aur # you crazy coder

The script now checks to see if the file has already been downloaded, only downloading it if it's not already there. This should speed up your installations, folks! Thanks for the suggestion, NovaCygni!

Tell me what you want the script to do and I'll rewrite it #### Check for the latest available version, and get the current changelog version # TODO: This is currently not working (as of 6.7.0) so I'm hard-coding it hard coding !!! that made me laugh !!! you didn't code anything you edit a script , coding is when you write a program in c or java etc and incorporated a mysql database for example to be used i.e coding is when you use multiple languages in a program I wrote a shell script to help you download the program , I haven't written any code yet !!!

#### Check for the latest available version, and get the current changelog version # TODO: This is currently not working (as of 6.7.0) so I'm hard-coding it. your hard coding it :) TELL ME HOW HARD YOUR CODING IT ??? LOL that made me laugh :) its bash script that I threw together to help the auto download of the package coding is when you write with c or another program and incorportae databases like mysql and access other launages within the program writing a bash script is " writing a shell script to either automate or complete a task/invoke a service and or make checks " Email me on what you want done and Ill rewrite the script The first script I wrote checked for the current version available and you told me to remove future proofing ? as you said you didn't need it
