Who publishes this

Nobody has confirmed that the publisher controls this app id. Flatsonar warns before installing.

  • packaged by github.com/pop-os, not by the io.github namespace owner; it does build the owner's code from https://github.com/PSGtatitos/papyrus.git
    publisher:namespace
  • installs a prebuilt binary instead of building from source
    source:prebuilt
