That's an overly broad result and action. It appears that some scanners (in this case, 3 out of over 30) classified the file based on previous abuse. This is not uncommon for package wrappers, since they can execute pretty much arbitrary code when called. However, if followed consequently, that policy would require banning pretty much any installer. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hosting at Google Code" group.
