Why flagged The pip install is run during prepare() but only installs dependencies from a requirements.txt file sourced from the project's own GitHub repository, which is a normal and safe practice for bundling dependencies in AUR packages.

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 95%): The pip install is run during prepare() but only installs dependencies from a requirements.txt file sourced from the project's own GitHub repository, which is a normal and safe practice for bundling dependencies in AUR packages.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)
MEDIUM pip install of an external package pip_install_external

`pip install <package>` fetches an unpinned package from PyPI at build time, outside source=() and makepkg's checksums.
