I don't think John knows why the installer is failing Apple's
notarization process right now for sure.  Although there's a whole
bunch of reasons NetBeans probably shouldn't pass if Apple's
guidelines are read strictly.  Fixing it might require code changes.

Yeah so as I understand it right now, up to now, we got away with it, as
Apache NetBeans was being notarized but shouldn't have been, and
potentially now gatekeeper is cleverer than the notarization service...

I'm not signing the .app, but the current issue is that I think we need to
loop through jars, and sign any embedded native libraries(.
dylib|.jnilib|.so|bin), as these are not being reported as errors as they
are not signed.  Very similar to this post[1].

I've created 2 PRs for my current changes(one in netbeans, the other in the
jenkins-lib project) to get me where I am at the moment.  I'll take a look
tomorrow and see what makes sense in terms of signing the embedded native
libraries...
