To run on macOS, applications must be signed by Apple, otherwise they’re considered “damaged” by default. This process costs around $100/year, and requires some paperwork that I don’t intend to go through at this time, for what’s essentially a hobby. I’m sorry.
It used to be possible to bypass this safety check by simply ctrl-clicking (instead of double-clicking) the app to open it. That doesn’t seem possible anymore.
If you want to run the app anyway, there are 3 remedies, all of which require using the Terminal:
- use Homebrew
to install the app:
–brew install ncruces/tap/rethinkraw - use
curlto download the dmg, then install the app:
–curl -L https://github.com/ncruces/RethinkRAW/releases/latest/download/RethinkRAW.dmg > ~/Desktop/RethinkRAW.dmg - remove the quarantine flag from the app after installing it:
–xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/RethinkRAW.app
It’s totally understandable if you don’t want to mess with any of these. These security measures are put in place to prevent spreading of malware. Unfortunately, hobbyists are caught in the process.
Edit: being open source, the other alternative is to download and build directly from source, which is actually very easy as long as you have Go.
