Reports or bugfixes are welcome a this point. Major blockers for a usable homebrew distribution are: -* OpenVPN is launched, but cannnot stopped https://0xacab.org/leap/bitmask-dev/issues/8924 * Cannot find the gpg binary installed by homebrew https://0xacab.org/leap/bitmask-dev/issues/8934 +How to produce a bundle to be distributed via homebrew +------------------------------------------------------ + +(This section is maintainer notes, but it can be useful also for you if you are working +on changes that affect distribution and you want let others test your work.) + +The original homebrew formula is in ``https://github.com/kalikaneko/homebrew-bitmask/blob/master/bitmask.rb``. + +When running ``make bundle_osx``, PyInstaller generates two different folders +(the initial PyInstaller folders get some extra files added by the rules in +the makefile). One is the OSX Bundle - that is distributed by the installer in +the form of a `.pkg` , and the other is the bare libs folder.
