Well, it’s not new, it’s been like that since 2020 with Big Sur and the introduction of M1 (before that M1 isn’t supported). Big Sur (version 11), was followed by Monterey (version 12), then Ventura (version 13), then Sonoma (version 14), which is the beta you’re talking about and the expected General availability is on September 26, 2023, in a couple of days.
Even homebrew had problems at that time, so we’re not alone.

I hope it is only something in the current beta and not in the final release (which I have not yet installed). We can probably sign through OSGEO. But when I looked into signing, it seems difficult unless you use Apple XCode. That would be a big step back from the current ease of compiling Mac binaries with Conda. When I looked into it several years ago, I could not find any clear instructions about how to sign code without XCode, although it may be possible. Michael _____________________________ C.

I tried to read about CI for macOS, then on why there aren?t a lot of CI for macOS (especially Apple Silicon). I also couldn?t look into the build infrastructure used for your grass macOS builds since they don?t seem to be available on GitHub. Is it local only? Ok, so now to a possible explanation on why Rosetta 2 is asked to be installed. It seems that with Apple Silicon, arm64 code needs to be signed (which is new), while x86_64 doesn?t, like before. I think it was mentioned in the thread that the app might be unsigned. So I suspect that even if a universal binary contains arm64 and x86_64 binaries, if it is unable to use the arm64 binary, it will try using the intel ones. <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.sentinelone.com/blog/why-your-macos-edr-solution-shouldnt-be-running-under-rosetta-2/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!fsArQT1R77zoM9dYDuSYWa2EDSuZWXHf8RL6ndhUKVFs465WYl5KI24PM-gzQSn-C40Ow3bvU871smBGyyY33dx99byJwmGQB7Q$> [Apple-Silicon-Rosetta-2-and-the-Challenges-for-Endpoint-Security-7.jpg] Why Your macOS EDR Solution Shouldn't Be Running Under Rosetta 2<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.sentinelone.com/blog/why-your-macos-edr-solution-shouldnt-be-running-under-rosetta-2/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!fsArQT1R77zoM9dYDuSYWa2EDSuZWXHf8RL6ndhUKVFs465WYl5KI24PM-gzQSn-C40Ow3bvU871smBGyyY33dx99byJwmGQB7Q$> sentinelone.com<http://sentinelone.com/><https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.sentinelone.com/blog/why-your-macos-edr-solution-shouldnt-be-running-under-rosetta-2/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!fsArQT1R77zoM9dYDuSYWa2EDSuZWXHf8RL6ndhUKVFs465WYl5KI24PM-gzQSn-C40Ow3bvU871smBGyyY33dx99byJwmGQB7Q$> In particular, see the part where it says: That?s because one of the changes Apple brought in with Big Sur<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.sentinelone.com/blog/macos-big-sur-has-landed-10-essential-security-tips-you-should-know/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!fsArQT1R77zoM9dYDuSYWa2EDSuZWXHf8RL6ndhUKVFs465WYl5KI24PM-gzQSn-C40Ow3bvU871smBGyyY33dx99byJLjqv1E8$ > that only applies to Apple silicon Macs is that native arm64 code cannot execute on an M1 Mac unless it has a valid code signature.

But the debugging done doesn?t indicate that this is what is happening now from the messages received. I don?t own a macOS computer, nor a macOS computer with Apple Silicon in order to do any of the debugging needed to confirm all of this.
