CPMR0060 - Binaries Included (package)

:choco-warning: WARNING

This rule has been marked as a Note

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.

Issue

In the package, you have included binaries that match one of the following extensions:

  • exe
  • msi
  • msu
  • msp
  • dll
  • 7z
  • zip
  • gz
  • tar
  • rar
  • sfx
  • iso
  • dmg
  • so
  • jar

Please remove the binaries or update the package with a license file and a verification file.

Reasoning

If you include binaries in the package, even if you are the software vendor, you need to include confirmation of the right to distribute and verification that the files are legitimate.
