AppInspect and RegEx Capture Groups

In my add-on, I have a RegEx that contains 3 capture groups. However, one of the capture groups is only used within the RegEx as a numeric reference and is not required in the FORMAT field.

Unfortunately, I can't change this to a non-capturing group because it breaks the RegEx since it's dependent on being able to use the numeric reference.

As a result, my add-on always fails AppInspect and I can't seem to find a workaround for this.

Here's my transforms.conf entry for reference.

[replace-customfields]
REGEX = (\S+)=([^=]*)\s+(?:\1Label)=([^=]+)(?:(?:\s\w+=)|$)
FORMAT=$3::$2
KEEP_EMPTY_VALS=True
 

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
