LOW

Why flagged The pip install is from the project's own requirements.txt within the official git repository, building the project's declared dependencies in a local venv, which is standard and safe for AUR packages.

Triggered rules

LOW AI review downgraded a static finding llm_review

The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (qwen/qwen3-235b-a22b-07-25) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The pip install is from the project's own requirements.txt within the official git repository, building the project's declared dependencies in a local venv, which is standard and safe for AUR packages.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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.
