Description

I'm using the latest version (0.6.4) of node-appdmg.

I found out that this problem has been solved on other osx versions. But I am on macOS Ventura 13.0.1,
and I still encounter the same problem.

The log is as follows.

Error: Command failed: bless --folder /Volumes/xxxx --openfolder /Volumes/xxxx
bless: The 'openfolder' is not supported on Apple Silicon devices.

Any solution thanks.

Research direction

Start by tracing node-appdmg's handling of the bless command and the reported --openfolder argument on Apple Silicon macOS Ventura. Reproduce the failure using the log's command and confirm that generated DMGs no longer invoke an unsupported openfolder option on the affected platform.
