        @d-healey it also works without problem with the standalone versions. indeed the plugins already have an "Abcd" code for their operation in the daw.

          That's not related to notarization.

          Have you disabled/bypassed gatekeeper?

            @Lindon Seems like we're good to just notarize the pkg

            Does notarization apply to a .app contained on a .pkg?

            Yep. From my previous post:
            The notary service generates a ticket for the top-level file that you specify, as well as each nested file. For example, if you submit a disk image that contains a signed installer package with an app bundle inside, the notarization service generates tickets for the disk image, installer package, and app bundle.

            Your app must get code signed and get Hardened Runtime enabled,

            My exporter tool handles this.

              @d-healey I don't understand everything in the language of a programmer like you. gatekeeper I don't even know what it is. I distributed a dixiane of plugin to friends under catalina, mainly producers. I created one. pkg with the mac package application, then creates a distribution package. I just told the package to put the .vst and .au plugins in audio / plugin .... and that's it .. no problem whatsoever at the package or vst level. To be sure, I asked my friends if they had any errors and no one reported any problem to me. I did not do any right click manipulation etc ... just we open the pkg and everything works fine. After that maybe to distribute a plugin via the apple store it is necessary but for me, at this moment, everything is fine. I compile under x code latest version, project latest version and catalina latest version

                  Gatekeeper is the Mac "security" thing that pops up and tells you which apps it thinks are dangerous and it will try to stop you running them.

                      @adriano Do you distribute your plugins to your friends online or by using USB keys? Because if it's by using USB keys, you won't have any problems, it's when it's downloaded via the web that the Gatekeeper will interfere with the app/plugin.

                          @Lindon

                          hi, i just got to code my vst.component and the PKG. the coding went well.
                          (I could not verify if the code was successful with the command.>.

                          codesign -vvv /Users/macmini/Desktop/notarizationplugin/myvst.component. )

                          i had again entered the command line to sign, the terminal told me that the vst was already signed. so ok.
                          i'm notarizing pkg now, i handwrite in terminal but get this error. >.
                          unable to find utility "altool", not a developer tool or in PATH. <

                          and I am a little stuck.
                          I have created my altool password, correctly entered my email address in username. do you have any idea of ​​the problem?
                          thank you ;)

                            @Lindon the problem may be with x code 8.3 instead of a newer version?

                              Official docs say you need xcode 10 or later.

                                @d-healey @Lindon i just installed xcode 10. i received an email from apple saying that the notarization was not accepted. but I think I know why, the signature of the plugin, in the end, is not good. however when I do it nothing happens on the terminal. basically I can't sign. however on a previous manipulation, he told me that the plugin was already signed but probably not correctly. a little help would be welcome ^^

                                    @d-healey I started again from the beginning so the first step would be to sign the plugin or code it, is that right? with this line>
                                    codesign -s "Developer application ID: my name (my number id)" "/Users/Desktop/your.component" --timestamp
                                    already for me it does not work

                                        @d-healey no error because nothing happens that is the problem. I have checked multiple times to see if I was wrong, but I do not think so.
