I still need to figure out the signing. I'll probably do it for v3 release.
One small hitch I'm thinking about is the separate GDAL Complete - I think it would be a bit odd to sign GDAL with a QGIS dev cert, so I am considering making a truly all-in-one QGIS, but I really want GDAL as a separate package because I use it a lot outside QGIS. There is also the external Python 3 that is not signed, which I may also bundle in the QGIS app, and additional python modules which are not signed. Though loaded as a library to QGIS, I don't know if that matters. In the end, even if I make an all-in-one QGIS, I'd still have a separate GDAL installer for those that need it, which wouldn't be signed, along with my Postgres/PostGIS stack (which uses GDAL Complete), also not signed. So many users would still need to fuss with the macOS security to get that stuff installed and running. > On Jan 31, 2018, at 2:45 PM, Tim Sutton <t...@kartoza.com> wrote: > > Hi > >> On 31 Jan 2018, at 18:55, Alex M <tech_...@wildintellect.com >> <mailto:tech_...@wildintellect.com>> wrote: >> >> Question 1. >> The QGIS.org <http://qgis.org/> download page >> https://qgis.org/en/site/forusers/download.html >> <https://qgis.org/en/site/forusers/download.html> says: >> "This version requires separate installation of dependency framework >> (GDAL Complete) , also found at the download link below." >> >> Kyngchaos says http://www.kyngchaos.com/software/qgis >> <http://www.kyngchaos.com/software/qgis> >> "All required items are included on the disk image." >> >> Which is it?
