msime-bin
The package downloads prebuilt .deb binaries from official and trusted sources (GitHub Releases and Ubuntu archives) with fixed, verifiable checksums; the only risk is using a binary from an external party, but the sources are reputable and the package does not execute unverified code or exfiltrate data.
