Summary0004091: Ambiguous platform arch description for the .DMG binary
DescriptionI don't understand from the downloaded .dmg filename binary offered for macOS users if it's for Intel x86 or aarch64 arch.
Quote
The Mac OS X version of Doomseeker is available for Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger or higher and is a universal binary.

What is "a universal binary"? An Intel x86 binary, emulated by an Apple M1 ARM-based processor?

 'https://bitbucket.org/Doomseeker/doomseeker/src/1.3.3/releasescripts/makemacdmg.sh#lines-70:79 [^]'
Looks like OS X 10.4 targets PowerPC and i386, and OS X 10.9 targets x86_64.
There's no aarch64 target.

 Just old language that never was updated, thanks for noticing.

 Updated language in'https://bitbucket.org/Doomseeker/website/commits/b8ebee2840fc65bae5a44ba094412958d38a0eda [^]' I've opted not to mention it's an Intel only binary for now since Rosetta 2 probably works fine and saying more would likely just be confusing.

Zalewa can deploy that change along with the 1.4.0 release.

 The commit references an incorrect issue (0004092). It also didn't really address or clarify if future support for macOS on ARM would be distinguished.

I just did. Some instances of Mac OS X are remaining though:

$ grep -r 'Mac OS X'
git.php:

On occasion binaries of Git revisions for Windows and Mac OS X are provided
ind.php:including Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows. In addition the browser is open source

Had both tickets opened and crossed them, even posted the comment in the wrong ticket at first. Oh well.

As I said in the last post I didn't really want to write confusing wording like "Only supports Intel Macs" since that would imply it doesn't function under Rosetta 2, and I couldn't come up with any way to explain it without being super verbose and technical. Given that Apple's intention is for x86_64 apps to work transparently on ARM Macs, I'm not too concerned about it. I'm fairly confident we'll have an ARM version before Rosetta 2 is discontinued. (Famous last words?)

Good point, I should modernize those instances as well.

 Looks ok to me now.
