Security warning: namcap uses a bash script to source PKGBUILDs and interpret it's contents. Be wary if running this script on untrusted PKGBUILDs. You may lose your data. A safe bet is to run this as a user with very limited privileges. Cheers.
Re: [aur-general] script for running namcap on a AUR maintainer's packages
I'm having a problem with namcap-aur-pkgs. I enter any aur package, correct to the syntax, and it fails to download it, instead going straight to cat somthing or other. This errors out and I get no further. I had a quick look at the code, and the problem seems in the last little bit. Anyway, I've got it working, see below for my code and a patch for yours.

[aur-general] script for running namcap on a AUR maintainer's packages
It's useful to run namcap on a maintainer's packages on the AUR, especially when people apply for TU. This pair of scripts fetches the package names belonging to a maintainer (it only fetches the first 100 results though) and the second runs namcap on the package list by downloading the PKGBUILDs from AUR. -- Abhishek aur-maintainer-pkgs Description: Binary data namcap-aur-pkgs Description: Binary data
