Yes, that's what I'm talking about. It took me a while to figure out the
correct URL and my password, too. The new version of coverity doesn't
pull the changes automatically. Instead you have to compile the code
with a custom build system and provide a download link for the results:

Coverity Scan Self-Build - updated July 2012

Coverity build tool link is:

    Linux-64 6.0.2
    Linux-32 6.0.2

Downloading and building
Do once:

    Download and extract the tarball

    Add the bin directory to your path

Do for each build:

    cd to your build directory
        optional: Run any build steps that you don't want to analyze –
i.e. ./configure
    cov-build --dir cov-int [BUILD CMD and ARGS]
    Create a README file with your name, email, and project's name
    tar czvf project.tgz README cov-int
    Upload the project.tgz to your server

For your first build, after making the archive file available on a
server, send the URL for it to scan-admin at coverity.com. Once we sort out
any issues with the archive processing, you will get project name, and
password to submit builds automatically whenever you like.
Submitting self-builds
Enter project name, password, email and download URL here:
http://scan.coverity.com/submit.html


http://scan.coverity.com/self-build/6.0.2/cov-analysis-linux64-6.0.2.tar.gz
http://scan.coverity.com/self-build/6.0.2/cov-analysis-linux32-6.0.2.tar.gz


I've tried to upload my build of Python's py3k head but the system
doesn't recognize my password for the upload process. I guess we need to
get a different password for the upload process. Or you could try your
login data. Perhaps I don't have the necessary permissions. My build is
available at http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19557108/project.tgz
