Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt .deb binary from a non-official, non-whitelisted host (schinfo.de), which is not the project's official domain, creating a supply-chain risk if the host is compromised or malicious.

Triggered rules

Medium source=() URL on a non-standard host source_untrusted_domain

One or more source=() URLs point to a host outside the trusted allowlist (github.com, gitlab.com, codeberg.org, pypi.org, …).
