Why flagged

The pip install is part of building the project from its own source (git checkout), which is standard for AUR packages; the installed code comes from the project's official repository, not an external untrusted package.

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-2507) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The pip install is part of building the project from its own source (git checkout), which is standard for AUR packages; the installed code comes from the project's official repository, not an external untrusted package.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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

PKGBUILD:22 pip install pyinstaller .
