Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt .deb from a non-whitelisted, project-specific host (signalyst.com), which is not a general-purpose forge; the binary is unpacked and installed without access to source, creating 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, …).
