Why flagged

The package downloads a precompiled .deb binary from a non-standard host (releases.lore.org) not directly tied to a major forge or vendor domain, which is unverifiable and could be silently swapped, 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, …).
