2 permissions weaken the sandbox. Flatsonar asks before installing.

    --device=kvm
  • network
    --share=network
  • inter-process communication (needed for X11)
    --share=ipc
  • X11 display, only when Wayland is unavailable
    --socket=fallback-x11
  • Wayland display
    --socket=wayland
  • audio

  • keeps .linuxbrew between runs
    --persist=.linuxbrew

Who publishes this

Something concrete is wrong: the id claims a namespace this repository does not own, or the build does things a build should not. Flatsonar warns twice.

  • com.github.sejoslaw.brewflat claims the com.github.sejoslaw namespace but is hosted by github.com/sejoslawflatpak and does not build the owner's code
    publisher:namespace
  • https://github.com/expressionismmaguey41/com.github.sejoslaw.brewflat also publishes this app id
    publisher:collision
  • git source tracks a moving branch: what gets built can change without the manifest changing
    source:unpinned
  • the build has network access: it can download things the manifest does not list
    alacritty:build-options:--share=network
