So when you right-click the .pkg and hold Option when selecting “Open” from the 
context menu, it still doesn’t let you install even though it warns?


Geertjan,  what do you mean by “Anything executed from command line will 
execute like normal” ?

For the record opening the .pkg from the command line:

open "/Volumes/Apache NetBeans 11.2/Apache NetBeans 11.2.pkg”

still won’t allow you to continue.  The only way I am aware of is to know to 
use the context menu “Open” and hold option while selecting it.

Many macOS users will not be aware of this option.  So at the very least these 
instructions should be on the download page.
