Jonah,
The platform, like the installer, also produces *.tar.gz for the MacOS,
e.g.,
https://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops4/S-4.18M1a-202010120320/eclipse-SDK-4.18M1a-macosx-cocoa-x86_64.tar.gz
But, like the installer, the web pages don't present this to the user
because it's just not very usable for an end-user given all the
protections in place on MacOS.
I'm happy that the platform provides the *.tar.gz as well because it's
useful for scripts. E.g., the JustJ JRE generation script uses the
*.tar.gz for MacOS. I hope that it will always continue to do so...
Regards,
Ed

Hello folks,
The Eclipse Platform delivers Mac packages as only DMG files. This is
what EPP does too. The Oomph Eclipse Installer publishes both .tar.gz
and .dmg files, but only the dmg is linked from eclipse.org/download
<http://eclipse.org/download>.
I am not familiar with MacOSX, so this question may be unreasonable.
Is it possible to publish both .tar.gz and .dmg for MacOSX?
Thanks,
Jonah
