Why flagged

Package builds and installs its own source tarball from the project's GitHub repository using pip with --no-deps and --isolated flags; the pip install is of the local project directory (.), not an external package, so no external dependency is pulled at install time. The only concerns are that it's a low-vote, recently uploaded package from an unfamiliar project, but no obfuscation, exfiltration, or unverifiable prebuilt binaries are present.

Triggered rules

Low AI review downgraded a static finding llm_review

The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 60%): Package builds and installs its own source tarball from the project's GitHub repository using pip with --no-deps and --isolated flags; the pip install is of the local project directory (.), not an external package, so no external dependency is pulled at install time. The only concerns are that it's a low-vote, recently uploaded package from an unfamiliar project, but no obfuscation, exfiltration, or unverifiable prebuilt binaries are present.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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:25 PIP_CONFIG_FILE=/dev/null pip install --isolated --root="${pkgdir}" --ignore-installed --no-warn-script-location --root-user-action ignore --no-deps .
