Thanks!

However, even though reproducible-builds seems to address the manual install as well, which is good, I read the problem as being the actual backdoor of auto-update.

Since my Dad will not be able to make this verification, removing auto-update from the package is the only real resolution here.

Besides, given the broken/missing auto-update opt-out in packages like OrFox, it is difficult to trust the developers, since it is the user who defines "malicious".


Wordlife,
Spencer
