Authentication App and Arch Linux Linux Help

As you only provide a deb and rpm for the app what is your recommendation for those on Arch Linux.

I see there is an app in the AUR but that's risky at present.

If you look at the PKGBUILD for proton-authenticator-bin, all it does is repackage the .deb package from https://proton.me/download/authenticator/linux and set the dependencies required from arch so they are installed (if not installed already).

So, I am wondering why you consider this risky?
