MEDIUM

Why flagged The package installs an external Python dependency (biopython) at build time using 'uv pip install' with a remote source, which creates a supply-chain risk due to unverifiable origin and potential for silent substitution.

Triggered rules

LOW 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. Severity reduced: python-* packages routinely use pip.

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.
