- QSIITurbo 13y agoMeh, just admit you didn't realise how packages are signed and move on. TLS shouldn't and cannot be used to sign installation packages. After all, TLS stands for _Transport Layer_ Security...
- fletchowns 13y agoHe followed some pretty logical steps and made a fair enough point, there's no reason for you to be a douche about it.
- QSIITurbo 13y agoWell you have the right to feel offended, but he really didn't "follow logical steps and make a fair enough point" as his idea was completely wrong when it comes to signing installation packages.
- pilif 13y agoWell. In a way it's mentioned here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5290 http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5290 Yes. That's the marketing page explaining how Gatekeeper works, but yes, in the end it's a feature of Gatekeeper that makes it harder for you to open unsigned packages and impossible to open packages with a broken signature. So even when you don't know about pkgutil (most people don't), Gatekeeper will still help you.
