hl not notarized/codesigned for osx machines running gatekeeper
hl cannot run on OSX machines running gatekeeper, which is usually enabled in an enterprise environment.
Application fails to launch with the expected "Apple could not verify "hl" is free of malware that may harm your Mac or compromise your privacy". Application would need to be signed/notarized with something like apple_codesign.
This is when trying to directly run the binary downloaded from the latest release assets. My understanding is it should be fine if installed via homebrew, or built locally.
Yes, the recommended way to install on macOS is through Homebrew or from the source code.
You can also download and unpack it using command-line tools like curl and tar, that should work too.
The problem with code signing and notarization is that I need a developer subscription for that. This project is completely free and does not generate any revenue. I could probably open donations to pay for things like that. I will think about it.
Is there a particular reason you can't use Homebrew or curl and tar?
For example:
curl -sSfL https://github.com/pamburus/hl/releases/latest/download/hl-macos.tar.gz | tar xz
Yeah that is completely understandable. If you do open up donations I would be happy to contribute some.
I believe the tar method would work, but unfortunately (for me) my company has a requirement that all 3p software must be codesigned.
I’ve opened donations at ko-fi.com/pamburus. For anyone interested in this feature, please give a 👍 reaction on the original post and consider supporting the project — it will help bring this feature to life and keep it maintained. ❤️
