This package was rejected on 02 Aug 2019. The reviewer chocolatey-ops has listed the following reason(s):
StarCraft is a military science fiction media franchise, created by Chris Metzen and James Phinney and owned by Blizzard Entertainment. The series, set in the beginning of the 26th century, centers on a galactic struggle for dominance among four species—the adaptable and mobile Terrans, the ever-evolving insectoid Zerg, the powerfully enigmatic Protoss, and the "god-like" Xel'Naga creator race—in a distant part of the Milky Way galaxy known as the Koprulu Sector. The series debuted with the video game StarCraft in 1998. It has grown to include a number of other games as well as eight novelizations, two Amazing Stories articles, a board game, and other licensed merchandise such as collectible statues and toys.

starcraft has failed automated validation.
Requirements
Requirements represent the minimum quality of a package that is acceptable. When a package version has failed requirements, the package version requires fixing and/or response by the maintainer. Provided a Requirement has flagged correctly, it must be fixed before the package version can be approved. The exact same version should be uploaded during moderation review.
Guidelines
Guidelines are strong suggestions that improve the quality of a package version. These are considered something to fix for next time to increase the quality of the package. Over time Guidelines can become Requirements. A package version can be approved without addressing Guideline comments but will reduce the quality of the package.
packageSourceUrl
, pointing to the url where the package source resides. This is a strong guideline because it simplifies collaboration. Please add it to the nuspec. More...Suggestions
Suggestions are either newly introduced items that will later become Guidelines or items that are don't carry enough weight to become a Guideline. Either way they should be considered. A package version can be approved without addressing Suggestion comments.
Notes
Notes typically flag things for both you and the reviewer to go over. Sometimes this is the use of things that may or may not be necessary given the constraints of what you are trying to do and/or are harder for automation to flag for other reasons. Items found in Notes might be Requirements depending on the context. A package version can be approved without addressing Note comments.

WARNING: '%localappdata%\Programs\StarCraft\StarCraft.exe,1' does not exist. A default icon will be used.
The "second" icon indication is a valid "command" for the bundled icons inside an executable.
IMO this should be allowed by the chocolatey installer and not warned, because it exists and is valid.

Hi,
The icon I was referring to is the <iconUrl> inside your .nuspec file. Can you please see my previous mdoeration comment about it?
With regards to the virus scanning, all I'm looking for is to get it passing Virus Total (so however you want to do that). Alternatively if you can provide me with some information from the authors regarding it I can take a look.
I would suggest not using the 8GB version of the software unless that is the only way this can be done and you caveat the package description with those details.
Thanks.

I've been in contact (by email) with the upstream package owners. They say there must be a false positives and they did not update the package in years. Even so they will look into the matter, I've sent them link to the virus scanner results.
2.1 Upstream source: https://iccup.com/sc_start.html
2.2 Contact page: https://iccup.com/en/contacts.html
I also believe that changing this to 8GB version wont work because:
I hope this clarify things a bit.
I don't know how to continue unless the admins/upstream-package-owners could do something about the package to remove the false positives?

With regards to the virus scanning results I'm not happy passing this with so many scanners flagging malware. Hopefully the upstream maintainers can look into this and resolve.

Hi,
could you verify that this is the official distibution point for Blizzard Entertainment's Starcraft? I haven't checked the full package.
n3rd4i (maintainer) on 17 Jun 2019 18:26:35 +00:00:
This is NOT the official distribution point for StarCraft. As I've stated in my previous comments:
Now maybe there could be some hacky way with AutoHotkey to bypass such installation but some time needs to be spent with this which I want to avoid if this is possible for the 3 reasons I've already stated before.
None of those problem exists with this "slim-version-package". The only problem stated also by previous reviewers is that this version contains some, what the owner/creators of this upstream zip package call "false positives". Which in turn that I was looking into the contents of the package myself I could only find one potential (only 1 not 10) "APM_check/bwchart.exe" which from multiple engines (10) is reported as unsafe, but local antivirus does not report anything. Also, I removed the potential unsafe "APM_check/*" folder completely from the install of this chocolatey package myself in the install file (could be reviewed of course).
The owners of the upstream package said to me by email that they will look into the issue but they still believe its just false positives and I dont see much reaction after that.
Now this bring back the question, is it enough to mitigate the issues by removing the "potential" harmful executables from the upstream package in chocolatey package? IMO the removal of those files from install should be enough. Otherwise I need to reconsider this package for the official one which has the stated problems on its own.
Maybe we could think of some agreement after all?

The original SC1 installer keeps changing the hash every time I download it, can such issue be resolved somehow or skipped the hash check? (probably that does not stand from a security perspective)

The checksums are mandatory I'm afraid.
Does the checksum change EVERY time you download it. Or does it change daily / hourly?

Yes.

That is very strange. But perhaps they embed some sort of tracking ID in the package?
But I'm not sure how you would get around that.
My suggestion is sto aks in the Gitter channel (https://gitter.im/chocolatey/choco) as another maintainer may have come across this issue?

We've found starcraft v1.16.1 in a submitted status and waiting for your next actions. It has had no updates for 20 or more days since a reviewer has asked for corrections. Please note that if there is no response or fix of the package within 15 days of this message, this package version will automatically be closed (rejected) due to being stale.
Take action:
If your package is failing automated testing, you can use the chocolatey test environment to manually run the verification and determine what may need to be fixed.
Note: We don't like to see packages automatically rejected. It doesn't mean that we don't value your contributions, just that we can not continue to hold packages versions in a waiting status that have possibly been abandoned. If you don't believe you will be able to fix up this version of the package within 15 days, we strongly urge you to log in to the site and respond to the review comments until you are able to.

I've updated the battle.net packge with a comment. I'm not really sure how we can move forward though?

Unfortunately there has not been progress to move starcraft v1.16.1 towards an approved status within 15 days after the last review message, so we need to close (reject) the package version at this time. If you want to pick this version up and move it towards approval in the future, use the contact site admins link on the package page and we can move it back into a submitted status so you can submit updates.
Status Change - Changed status of package from 'submitted' to 'rejected'.
