security issues on mac

[gesellkammer]

Thanks for the report. This probably has to do with code-signing in macos.

There are in fact some tests in place regarding the binaries provided here, and they do seem to work on csound from the command line, both in intel and arm.

https://github.com/csound-plugins/risset/actions

In these tests csound is installed from the installer and the plugins are installed via risset, which uses the same binaries as the ones provided here. But it might be that the machines used for github actions are in some way not affected by such security issues

Could you please provide a bit more detailed information about your installation process? (where was csound installed from, where did you place the plugins, the exact output from running csound from the command line and the exact output from running csoundqt from the command line)?

now i am back on this mac and can provide more info.

csound was installed with the main installer: https://github.com/csound/csound/releases/download/6.18.1/Csound-MacOS-universal-6.18.1.dmg

for installing the plugins, i followed the instructions at https://csound-plugins.github.io/csound-plugins/Installation.html:
i copied the dylibs from https://github.com/csound-plugins/csound-plugins/releases/download/v1.18.0/csound-plugins--macos-arm64.zip to ~/Library/csound/6.0/plugins64

CsoundQt version is 1.1.1. the error message is, when running your perlin3 example:

when i run the example from terminal, i had to allow every single dylib. after this, the example works, but of course without the widgets.

about installing everything via risset: i did not find anything about it in the above mentioned install instruction. how to do it? i also could not find it in the menu of csoundqt although i thought you added it.
