MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for telive [2]:

Abandoned VCS package in disguise from 2017, and it compromises system
security:

 - installs a directory under root ("/tetra"),
 - copies executables inside /tetra,
 - runs chown -R :wheel on the whole tree of /tetra, with the aim of
making it all writeable by the users of the group 'wheel',
 - if /tetra/bin/tetrad is executed, it creates and deletes
directories and files,
 - if /tetra/scripts/install_telive.sh is executed, it uses sudo,
downloads many git repos, compiles code from them, and installs files
on its own.

The first three problems have been pointed out by @Foxboron in AUR
comment on 2017-11-30 but they are yet to be addressed.
