Out of curiosity: what size would a Sigil dmg be? Would it really be larger than Calibre's? It looks like the latest for it is a hair over 300Mb. That seems large to me (but I'm old) but users don't seem mind it.
The .txz is about 120meg for Sigil. When unpacked the resulting Sigil.app is now 509,302,507 bytes (519meg on disk).

If I try to create a level 9 compressed dmg with the following commands:

hdiutil create ~/Desktop/test.dmg -ov -volname "Sigil" -fs HFS+ -srcfolder ~/Desktop/Sigil.app

hdiutil convert ~/Desktop/test.dmg -format UDZO -imagekey zlib-level=9 -o Sigil.dmg

The resulting Sigil.dmg is about 200meg (198180814).

I have no idea if a dmg being unpacked will transfer any com.apple.quarantine attributes to the payload or not when mounted.
