Hey fellow macOS users. I'm looking for volunteers to test out new LMS builds for your Mac. Currently we still use an OSX 10.5(!) virtual machine to build our packages. The whole package relies on Perl being installed on your system and obviously doesn't fully support Apple Silicon. (but hey: that machine boots up in seconds!)
Apple announced they're going to remove scripting languages from macOS. I think it already happened for php and python... So there's a lot of work to do. In a first step I'm trying to get LMS to run with our own custom build of Perl, which would support Intel and Apple Silicon. I have an experimental build ready for macOS 11+. Any volunteers to give this a try? There's no risk trying it out: it'll use your old preferences, cache etc. And if it didn't work for you, you could simply re-install a regular build to get back into stable land. The next legacy is the preference pane. As I said it's targeted at OSX 10.5. In order to bring it up to speed some macOS dev skills and some time would be required. Or more time with my limited dev skills. I was wondering: would you miss it if we replaced it with a simple application bundle. You'd then have to use the web UI to set paths, sign in to mysb etc. rather than the pref pane. Would that be a loss?
