Why flagged This PKGBUILD downloads and installs a prebuilt binary (FENTLAUNCHER) from a personal/unofficial Gitea instance (git.xserv.pp.ua) operated by the maintainer's own team (FENTTEAM). All checksums are SKIP, meaning there is zero integrity verification — any future change to the upstream release artifact would go undetected. The binary is a native x86_64 executable installed to /opt and made executable (chmod 755), so it runs with full user privileges. The host is not an official distribution mirror or well-known vendor CDN; it is a self-hosted forge under a personal domain. This is a textbook medium-severity supply-chain concern: unofficial host + prebuilt binary + no checksum verification. There is no evidence of active malice, obfuscation, or piracy, so it does not rise to high.
