Hi,

Is there a need to fix this issue?

I'd assume most users, probably are using Catalina or BigSur(I'm still
avoiding that upgrade) - could we provide a note in the download section to
say users still in Mojave, should look at using the binary?  It seems that
every year Apple mark another release as no longer supported, next up is
Mojave and that could be anywhere in Q3 or Q4 this year...

For the numbers of people that might be affected, is it worth providing a
workaround in 12.4? - I wouldn't even know where to begin here...

Regards

John
