@JohnOCFII any idea how to solve this ?

Sadly, no. I just downloaded the latest build (38467) for macOS arm -- and it comes across as damaged. I know that there were efforts over the weekend to change the way the bundle was created. Wonder if it is related to that change? See FreeCAD/FreeCAD-Bundle#290

@JohnOCFII Yes, this is likely due to FreeCAD/FreeCAD-Bundle#290.

@oursland I think you meant to link FreeCAD/FreeCAD-Bundle#290 rather than a FreeCAD PR from September 2016!!

@adrianinsaval When I try to debug the application it dies due to signal 9 (SIGKILL), which indicates an external process is terminating the execution.

Is this perhaps a signing issue?

@Syres916 Yes, GitHub automatically linked my text and did so incorrectly.

I do believe it has to do with code signing or is somehow related. I cannot manually launch the freecad binary. When I move the file outside the FreeCAD.app directory, they begin to execute normally.

I did test this change extensively on my laptop for both FreeCAD/FreeCAD-Bundle#290 and FreeCAD/FreeCAD-Bundle#289, but I will admit I am less knowledgeable about macOS's requirements for running code outside the developer's machine and the related code-signing issues.
