The question was indeed more about the notarization process and
verification by Apple, so from a technical point of view,... :) Knowing
what is blocking here from a tech POV etc.

GIMP has fixed the issue for their own installers and I'm pretty sure
the GIMP dev who fixed it could provide some help to TDF if we are
willing to :)
