signing on mac os x

Open coke opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

I understand there is a recurring cost to get the tools to sign the releases on OS X - my hope is that between RSC&YAS, we could pay for this cost with community donations to ensure that at least one developer has the ability to sign the releases.

For context: Rakubrew MacOS releases are currently not signed. This has the effect that users need to manually teach the OS that rakubrew is safe to execute. This is anoying, difficult to communicate and thus a recurring issue for new users. This is documented on https://rakubrew.org/?platform=macos in the Common errors section.

Related: https://github.com/rakudo/rakudo/issues/4611#issuecomment-960553458 That's about buying a Windows signing certificate for rakudo builds.

Also related: https://github.com/Raku/infra/issues/8#issuecomment-1436493641 That's about having the Raku infra servers paid by YAS.

I'd love to have all three (Mac OS certificate, Microsoft certificate and server infrastructure) solved in one fell swoop.
