vintagestory-unstable
The source is a prebuilt Linux client tarball from the game's official CDN, which is a non-whitelisted but project-owned host; the worst case of a swapped artifact would be code execution, but the source is directly from the project's official infrastructure, making it a standard AUR package with low risk.
