Why flagged

The package downloads prebuilt .deb binaries from a non-whitelisted but project-owned host (storage.ednovas.org), which are then extracted and installed; while the host is not on a standard whitelist, it appears to be the official project infrastructure, and the binaries are checksum-verified, reducing risk—however, installing prebuilt executables without source availability constitutes a supply-chain risk if the host were compromised.

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, …).
