This needs a new uno-Release, right?

[jeromelaban]

Yes it does, it will be in the next release.

@jeromelaban maybe we should re-open this one.

It seems the latest versions of macOS [1] do not like the format on the app bundle (it says it's damaged) but it works on earlier versions [2] of macOS.

That will also block signing the app bundle (since it won't be accepted as valid).

[1] macOS 14.7 and 15.1 on arm64
[2] macOS 14.3 on x64_64

[spouliot]

Some dylibs [1] are fat (both arm64 and x86_64) while most of them (including the ones from dotnet) are for the selected architecture. If producing a thin bundle then they should be thinned (lipo -extract) to reduce the size of the bundle.

[1] including

• libSkia.dylib
• libHarzBuff.dylib
• libUnoNativeMac.dylib

The PR #18984 is a pre-requisite to use app bundles.
