#203: [10.8] Haskell Platform installer should be signed with a developer ID
---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
Reporter: cbarrett | Owner: MtnViewMark
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: major | Milestone:
Component: OSX installer | Keywords:
---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
Given that the default Gatekeeper
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gatekeeper_(OS_X)) setting for 10.8 is to
only allow Mac App Store and Developer ID signed applications / packages,
the Haskell Platform installer is a lot less user-friendly.
When double-clicking, users are presented with the dialog in the attached
screenshot. Clicking "OK" does NOT launch the package. (By right-clicking
and selecting "Open", users are presented with a slightly different dialog
that allows the user to open the package anyway.)
More info here about how to get a Developer ID:

This is reasonably urgent as Mountain Lion's release is imminent (within
the next couple of weeks, probably).
