This library is being removed from Library Manager by Arduino due to security concerns. Although there are no concerns about the library code itself, the library.properties metadata file contains an unfortunate typo in the `url` field. This causes the "More Info" link provided by the Library Manager to take the user to a misspelling of github.com owned by a typo squatter. The library author has already corrected this error, but there has not been a release of the library in the ~4 years since that time, and no response to an inquiry about the situation made ~3.5 years ago. This was surely an honest mistake, without any malicious intent on the library author's part, but we need to resolve the situation. We will be happy to add the library back once the library maintainer has done the following: - Create a new release or tag in the library's repository with the corrected `url` value. - Delete the `1.0` tag that has the bad URL from the library's repository.

This library is being removed from Library Manager by Arduino due to security concerns.
Although there are no concerns about the library code itself, the library.properties metadata file contains an unfortunate typo in the
urlfield. This causes the "More Info" link provided by the Library Manager to take the user to a misspelling of github.com owned by a typo squatter. The library author has already corrected this error (shubhamtrivedi95/UltraDistSensor@fea546b), but there has not been a release of the library in the ~4 years since that time, and no response to an inquiry about the situation made ~3.5 years ago (shubhamtrivedi95/UltraDistSensor#1).This was surely an honest mistake, without any malicious intent on the library author's part, but we need to resolve the situation. @shubhamtrivedi95 we will be happy to add the library back once you have done the following:
