About

Rezeptor is a desktop launcher for tested Wine recipes powered by Proton-GE. Install, repair, validate, launch, and uninstall applications such as Photoshop, tax software, and Steam games with online fixes. User data and Wine prefixes are stored under ~/.local/share/wine-software/. Bring-your-own-installer paths need home filesystem access (granted by default).

Who publishes this

The creator demonstrably controls this app id: Flathub verification, the hosting account owns the namespace, or a well-known file on their domain.

  • fetches from deb.debian.org over unencrypted http: anyone on the path can swap the bytes
    source:insecure-url
  • installs a prebuilt binary instead of building from source
    source:prebuilt
  • the build has network access: it can download things the manifest does not list
    rezeptor:build-options:--share=network
  • hosted by github.com/benjarogit, which owns the io.github namespace of io.github.benjarogit.Rezeptor
