Overview
pkgcheck is a utility which the author uses to check uploaded packages to CTAN before installing them. It is a binary running on Linux only.
There is no Windows version planned.
Dependencies
The pkgcheck binary is a 64-bit statically linked binary, and thus it should run also on older Linux versions.
It uses pdfinfo for checking pdf documents.
Installing the binary
Copy the binary from bin/pkgcheck to a suitable location on your hard disk, and (recommended) make sure the directory is in the PATH or call pkgcheck using an absolute path name.
Documentation
The documentation is docs/pkgcheck.pdf. It contains a description of all fatal, error, warning and information messages.
Build the documentation
Run either xelatex or lualatex. Note that -shell-escape is required.
cd docs lualatex -shell-escape pkgcheck.tex

pkgcheck – CTAN package checker
Packages uploaded to CTAN will be checked by the CTAN team before they get installed.
This package provides the pkgckeck command line utility used by CTAN members for carrying out those checks that can be performed in an automated way.
pkgcheck is a 64-bit static Linux binary, and runs out of the box. The only prerequisites is that pdfinfo is available.
A Windows version is not planned.
