Description
- Can you reproduce the issue?
Steps to reproduce
- brew install --cask mark-text
Expected behavior:
Install the app
Actual behavior:
Got a error
The Apple Silicon (ARM) version of mark-text is not signed. It will display an error stating it is damaged and can't
be opened. Please see https://github.com/marktext/marktext/issues/2983 for details and workarounds.
This is something only the developer, not Homebrew, can fix.
Versions
- MarkText version: v0.17.1
- Operating system: Mac OS 14.1.2
