Just installed Racket 7.6 through Homebrew. Completely clean with no errors. Thank you for helping us out! On Wednesday, December 11, 2019 at 5:00:42 PM UTC+1, Matthew Flatt wrote: > > At the moment, we don't have plans to rebuild v7.5, so the change would > kick in with v7.6. > > The

At the moment, we don't have plans to rebuild v7.5, so the change would kick in with v7.6. The snapshot builds use HFS+ --- but they did, anyway, since they're created with an older version of Mac OS. At Wed, 11 Dec 2019 10:45:08 -0500, David Storrs wrote: > Thanks, Matthew, > > The version on

Thanks, Matthew, The version on the downloads page seems to still be APFS. Will it rebuild at some point? On Tue, Dec 10, 2019 at 8:46 PM Matthew Flatt wrote: > I’ve changed the distribution build to use HFS+ going forward. > > > On Dec 10, 2019, at 6:28 PM, James Platt wrote: > > > > > >>

Hi, If it isn't too much trouble, I at least would really appreciate this. One reason I think this is important is because Homebrew has a cask for Racket, which uses the .dmg distribution. It sets up $PATH (and probably other things I don't know about as well), and can update Racket for you,

Well, actually, I would try just running the binaries, first; it may well be that 10.11 doesn’t require the manual deletion of the quarantine flags. You can also try using a right-click and choosing “open” from the menu; this clears the quarantine flag in many cases. If it does turn out to be

This is 100% workaround rather than a fix, but have you considered using the minimal racket tarball: https://download.racket-lang.org/releases/7.5/installers/racket-minimal-7.5-x86_64-macosx.tgz …and then manually blessing the binaries using xattr and then installing the rest of the system
