NOTE: This is a stub package that installs the latest version of the application during installation.
It is not outdated.

This package only installs a bootstrap component that downloads and installs the full application from the developer’s update servers.
Please do not flag this package as out of date.

I noticed that this package doesn't include a PKGBUILD file. Should I copy it from https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=portmaster-bin?

Portmaster uses an internal automatic update mechanism for cross-platform support. This package just installs a component that bootstraps the whole application from the update servers of the developing company. All of updates are signed and verified end-to-end. If you have questions, please contact us at https://safing.io/support or raise an issue on Github at https://github.com/safing/portmaster.

IMPORTANT: This is a stub package that installs the newest version on install. It is not out of date!

One or more files did not pass the validity check - portmaster.desktop ... FAILED

Refreshed license details and cleaned up trailing spaces

It's a minor issue, but there are a bunch of trailing spaces in the install files:

- PKGBUILD
- portmaster-bin.install
- portmaster.desktop

Here is a sed command that you can use to remove them all (run within repo).

sed -i 's/[[:space:]]*$//' PKGBUILD portmaster-bin.install portmaster.desktop
