I just got the OS X 10.9.5 update pushed from Apple. The Gatekeeper default setting "App Store and identified developers" now blocks Audacity in the DMG from being launched. I've not tested the zip.
This problem was expected because from 10.9.5 onwards Apple require code signing to be done on Mavericks whereas Paul signs on an older machine. What I did not expect was that the trick we mention in Install.txt (shipped with Audacity on Mac) to right-click Audacity > Open and Open no longer works. On right-click > Open, Audacity is now reported to be "damaged" and recommended to be sent to Trash. That only leaves one option I know of which is to set Gatekeeper temporarily to allow apps downloaded from "anywhere". I am not sure if Buanzo can get 2.0.6 codesigned on Mavericks by an acquaintance, but it may be an idea to update Install.txt to mention opening Gatekeeper. Should I commit a change to Install.txt then wait for the next Mac nightly before posting Mac rc1's to SF? Install.txt is not currently translated, so it's just a packaging document. The Manual already mentions the "Damaged" message in a FAQ about Gatekeeper, so needs no change, though I've never seen that message actually reported hitherto.
