Python 3.12 change results in Apple App Store rejection

[efroemling]

Describe the bug

Since it is relevant here, I wanted to mention this issue that I recently ran into with Python 3.12 related to App Store reviews.

Here is my full bug report, but basically there was an 'itms-services' string added to a file in Python 3.12 and it seems Apple is auto-rejecting anything found to contain that string (at least that's what happened to me). After removing that string, my update passed inspection.

I'm curious if you or anyone else around here has run into this? (Feel free to close this issue; it is just intended as a heads-up for the original one)

Steps to reproduce

1. Submit an app bundling Python 3.12 or later to Apple's App Store
2. Get rejected

Expected behavior

Not getting rejected

Screenshots

No response

Environment

In my case this was Python 3.12 bundled into a Mac app submitted to the Mac App Store.
