LOW

Why flagged The package builds from the project's own source repositories and official release infrastructure; the flagged pip/external install via variable is actually a gem install of a specific, versioned, trusted Ruby tool (ceedling) required for building the project, posing no supply-chain risk.

Triggered rules

LOW AI review downgraded a static finding llm_review

The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (qwen/qwen3-235b-a22b-07-25) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 90%): The package builds from the project's own source repositories and official release infrastructure; the flagged pip/external install via variable is actually a gem install of a specific, versioned, trusted Ruby tool (ceedling) required for building the project, posing no supply-chain risk.

PKGBUILD:47 gem install --no-user-install --install-dir "$_ruby_root" ceedling -v "$_ceedling_ver"

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)

MEDIUM External install via pipx/uv/poetry/cargo/go/gem alt_pkg_manager_install

A non-pip/npm package manager (pipx, uv, poetry, cargo install, go install, gem, conda…) fetches and builds an external package at build time, outside source=() and makepkg's checksums.

PKGBUILD:47 gem install --no-user-install --install-dir "$_ruby_root" ceedling -v "$_ceedling_ver"
