--- Comment #23 from Alex Thurgood <iplaw67 at tuta.io> ---
I can confirm that LO6322 will not open without forcing / bypassing the
security settings

even when "AppleStore and other identified Developers" option is selected in
Gatekeeper security.

Tested on :

macOS Catalina 10.15 (updated to 16/10/2019)

without any additional language pack installation.


If you try and start the app from the Applications folder, you get a security
message that indicates the app doesn't come from an identified developer.

You can force this to work in at least the following 2 ways :

(1) right-mouse button click and choose Open then confirm when the next message
displays that you want to start LO ;

(2) go into System Prefs, Security, and note that the LO app bundle is flagged
as being from an unidentified developer. Click on the Open button. You will be
asked to enter your admin password, then you will be presented with the message
from option (1) asking you to confirm that you wish to open the app.

After a first successful launch, LO will open on subsequent occasions via
double-click on the app bundle in the Applications folder.

Confirming and marking as regression.

The question then is why the LO6322 app bundle is considered by macOS 10.15 as
not coming from an identified developer ?
