Why flagged

Several genuine supply-chain concerns exist here: (1) The main upstream source (Wallpaper-generator zip) has 'SKIP' for its checksum, meaning the primary application code is completely unverified. (2) pip is invoked during the prepare() phase to install packages from a requirements file whose contents are not visible here but are supplied as a separate file with a checksum — the actual PyPI packages pulled in are unaudited. (3) A local directory install of APICORE_Python-main (from GitHub main branch zip, not a tagged release) is performed via pip, meaning it executes arbitrary setup.py/pyproject.toml code at install time. (4) 'Pre-Use.zip' is a completely opaque binary blob from an unknown source (no URL, just a filename) that gets copied directly into the installed package directory — this is the most concerning element as it could contain arbitrary executables. (5) pyinstaller bundles everything into a binary that is then installed to /opt. The combination of SKIP checksum on the main source, an opaque Pre-Use.zip blob with no upstream URL, pip execution during build, and a GitHub main-branch dependency (not a tagged release) constitutes a real medium-severity supply-chain risk rather than a false positive.

Triggered rules

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.
