Big Sur - Opening unnotarized apps
« on: November 25, 2020, 09:07:50 am »
I installed a fresh Big Sur 11.0.1 on a new 2018 Mac Mini (Intel) and then copied one of my Lazarus+FPC applications to it via SMB.

Knowing it's not notarized, I used the ctrl-Click Open method to bypass Gatekeeper... but that now only appears to work  the second time you follow the procedure despite what this Apple Support Article claims.

Images attached.

Can anyone confirm?

I can confirm this behavior. If you just blindly double-click to open you get the warning, then Right-Click Open will show the override option. I guess no matter how you try to open the first time it will outright prevent you.

For FPC 3.2.0 compiler PKG I see only one warning.

I hold Shift key, click right mouse button and choose Open.

I get the same result with Big Sur 11.0.1 on both my Intel Mac mini and my new M1 Mac mini - first ctrl-click gives no option to open only move to bin and cancel, second ctrl-click gives the option to open. I tried a new project compared to last time - same thing.
