I'd be interested to know under what circumstances pip executes arbitrary code while resolving dependencies ... how does that work ?

And while I'm here ... how does uv go about mitigating typosquatting risks ? I could imagine how it might issue warnings if you perhaps it notices you requesting "dlango", which would work OK for the top 10% but are you suggesting there's some more general solution built into uv ?

I did a quick search but 'typosquatting' is not an easy string to cut through.
