Regarding the winget repository for installs, and your statement:
"

*This is great for automated system installs! I'll attempt to keep the
version here up-to-date, but any developer can submit manifest updates via
GitHub pull request.*";
Am I misunderstanding that this is a terrible security risk, since
apparently anyone
can alter the installation manifest, and therefore future installs could be
installing
malware rather than WSJT-X?    Or do I misunderstand?
