Comment (by mojca):

 I would prefer to keep the livecheck broken for now and rather have a
 ticket with all ports that still use google code and start an effort to
 move those ports away from google code.

 The particular example of arowapp: the
 "[https://code.google.com/archive/p/arowpp/ homepage]" says:
 > The project has moved to https://github.com/tetsuok/arowpp.

 so we should use a GitHub PortGroup and fix the port anyway.

 We should not be using google code for anything but obsolete software that
 is no longer maintained. Disabling the livecheck as a quick fix will just
 hide the problem. Sure, we may disable it eventually, but we certainly
 need a ticket tracking progress of moving ports away from google code.
