#74421: julia @1.13.0_0+app+gcc15: bundled arm64 zstd has invalid code signature
and is killed by macOS
--------------------------+--------------------
Reporter: hugo-ribeiro | Owner: (none)
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 2.12.6
Keywords: | Port: julia
--------------------------+--------------------
The arm64 zstd executable bundled with the MacPorts julia port has an
invalid code signature and is immediately terminated by macOS.
Executing:
{{{
codesign --verify --strict --verbose=4 /opt/local/libexec/julia/zstd
}}}
leads to:
{{{
/opt/local/libexec/julia/zstd: invalid signature (code or signature
have been modified)
In architecture: arm64
}}}
This prevents Julia's package manager from decompressing registry
archives.
For example, Pkg reports the following warning and error message when
trying to install IJulia:
{{{
Warning: unable to decompress and read archive
