Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt .deb from the project's official domain but is not built from source; the binary package could be tampered with if the host were compromised, constituting a supply-chain risk.

Triggered rules

Medium source=() URL on a non-standard host source_untrusted_domain

One or more source=() URLs point to a host outside the trusted allowlist (github.com, gitlab.com, codeberg.org, pypi.org, …).
