  • com.enginkarahan.PdfAnnotationExtractor claims the domain enginkarahan.com; only its owner can prove that
    publisher:namespace
  • the build has network access: it can download things the manifest does not list
    python-deps:build-options:--share=network
  • fetches from the network during the build (nothing to audit beforehand): pip3 install --no-cache-dir --no-deps --prefix=${FLATPAK_DEST} -r requirements.txt
