I'm still on High Sierra, and I think gatekeeper is still catching .txz on my Mac, unless I'm misunderstanding what gatekeeper is.
  • downloaded Sigil 0.9.18 .txz using Safari
  • unpacked txz using the Terminal command
  • copied Sigil app into my Applications folder
  • launched Sigil
  • got a pop-up asking, "Sigil is an application downloaded from the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it?"

When I did the same with the test builds you sent me for 0.9.17, I got a similar message, with the addition that the test build was unsigned, so I needed to confirm that I wanted to open an unsigned app.

This is all with High Sierra. Isn't this gatekeeper in action? or am I using the wrong terminology?



I tried the above again except downloading the .txz with Chrome instead of Safari. Got the same result.

Also, all of the above has always happened with Sigil .dmg (which I know is expected behavior)
Try downloading with Firefox. I'd like to know if it works better in this case.
