Hi, requesting review of a revision held by a metadata redflag.
- Snap: qcalc — Revision: 13 (0.13.1, amd64, strict)
- Uploaded: 2026-08-19 · Manual review requested: 2026-08-20 · no reviewer activity since
The automated review reports 43 passes, 0 warnings, 0 fails, with one item under “Others”:
human review required due to detection of potentially harmful contents in snap metadata metadata-snap-v2_snap_metadata_redflag
The snap is a desktop calculator. Its entire metadata is:
summary: A multi-purpose calculator for productivity and accessibility description: | QCalc packs 5 specialized calculators and 10 languages into one clean, keyboard-friendly app: standard arithmetic, unit conversion, currency exchange, programmer/radix math, and formula evaluation.
I cannot see which term matched. If it is “currency exchange” — the app converts between currencies using public exchange-rate data; it handles no accounts, payments or transfers. Happy to reword if that helps, but it looks like a false positive.
The previous revision (12) carried the same flag and sat unreviewed for 8 days before I rejected it, which automatically rejected revision 13 queued behind it; I restored 13 via “Request manual review”. The identical binary cannot be re-uploaded (binary_sha3_384: Error checking upload uniqueness), so manual review is the only path.
This release fixes the previously published snap failing to launch entirely, so it matters to get it out. Could this also be whitelisted so future releases are not held by the same check?
Thanks!
