Who publishes this
Nobody has confirmed that the publisher controls this app id. Flatsonar warns before installing.
- packaged by github.com/seanpm2001, not by the org.gnome namespace owner; it does build the owner's code from https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/eolie.git
publisher:namespace - git source tracks a moving branch: what gets built can change without the manifest changing
source:unpinned
