Research direction
Start by locating Syft's pip cataloger and the SBOM package metadata it produces, then trace how packages from non-default pip indices are identified. Confirm where a repository URL can be represented in the generated SBOM and review existing cataloger tests or fixtures. Done means the originating pip repository URL is retained for packages installed from non-default indices.
