Hi! I maintain MegaLinter, an open-source linters aggregator for CI that bundles Cppcheck out of the box in its Docker images (descriptor page: https://megalinter.io/latest/descriptors/c_cppcheck/).

This adds a one-line mention to the third-party section of the readme, following the format of the existing entries. Hope it's useful for folks looking for an easy way to run Cppcheck in their pipelines — happy to adjust the wording or drop it if you'd rather keep the list package-managers-only.

sorry for slow review.

I don't think this is the proper place. We list cppcheck packages as far as I see here.

I would suggest that we add MegaLinter in the "Clients and plugins" section on the webpage:
https://cppcheck.sourceforge.io/

Can you please open a PR in the github.com/cppcheck-opensource/htdocs repo?
If you see some other list that does not show cppcheck packages here somewhere please feel free to add MegaLinter there also.

No problem, thanks for the review :)

I opened cppcheck-opensource/cppcheck-htdocs#32 to add MegaLinter to the "Clients and plugins" section of the website, so I'm closing this one.
