Why flagged

The package installs a Python library via pip from PyPI, which is a normal and expected method for Python packages; the dependency is pinned to a specific version, reducing supply-chain risk.

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.

  • PKGBUILD:12 pip install --no-deps --target="syft" syft==0.2.4
