[libreoffice-projects] [ANN] LIbreOffice 4.2.0 RC1 available

Mac OS X 10.9. Getting error message when attempting to start (open)
the app after installing: "LibreOffice.app is damaged and can't be
opened. You should move it to the trash."

This problem also occured with the Beta2, and Norbert said he thought
the problem was with code-signing of non-release build. Bug 71884. He
fixed it by replacing with unsigned file, which worked fine.

Hi Jean,

Mac OS X 10.9. Getting error message when attempting to start (open)
the app after installing: "LibreOffice.app is damaged and can't be
opened. You should move it to the trash."

Ah, too bad :frowning:

As you're on 10.9 - did you use the 64bit build?

This problem also occured with the Beta2, and Norbert said he thought

Yeah, that is what we all hoped...

Bug 71884. He
fixed it by replacing with unsigned file, which worked fine.

Well, not really fixed, as that then also makes users unable to
directly open LibreOffice package, they'd have to use the
contextmenu...

Well obviously that was not the cause of my trouble :frowning: /me is
investigating ...
and not signing was not a 'solution' merely a stop-gap to try to get
something somewhat usable out there.. but that is not an option for a
RC.

Jean, can you try the 64bits build ?

Norbert

Hi Christian,

I used the regular (32-bit) build, which the download page suggested,
and which I have always used. Should I be using the 64-bit build? I'll
try that today.

--Jean

both should work for 10.9... I would just like a confirmation that the
64 bits build works (which I think it does... as the problem seems to
be tied to the signing of the Python Framework.. which is not
delivered in the 64 bits build (unnecessary since the target 10.8+
already have a suitable system python)

Norbert

64-bit Mac version opened for me as it should.

Good news...
I'm uploading a 'fixed' version to the pre-release section...

FYI I needed to add this

https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/7152/

to make it work

cloph, as this is just a packaging/signing problem.. it is prolly not
worth bothering with a re-spin of the source tarball...
