These are made from the upstream QBZ application without recompiling it; its
|

signature metadata and DMG container are replaced, then notarized by

[@afonsojramos](https://github.com/afonsojramos). They are not produced or

endorsed by the upstream project. The mirror publishes the source commit,

**Upstream alternative — ad-hoc signed:** download the Apple Silicon or Intel
|
||||
DMG from the [official upstream releases](https://github.com/vicrodh/qbz/releases)
|
||||
and drag QBZ into Applications. These DMGs are not notarized, so Gatekeeper
|
||||
will block the first run — and on recent macOS (Sequoia / 15 and later) the old
|
||||
right-click → Open trick no longer works. Two ways to unlock it, pick one:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Settings route:** try to open QBZ once (it gets blocked), then go to
|
||||
**System Settings → Privacy & Security**, scroll down to the message that
|
||||
QBZ was blocked, and click **Open Anyway**.
|
||||
- **Terminal route** (what the settings toggle does, minus the clicking):
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/QBZ.app
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This removes the quarantine attribute macOS stamps on downloaded files —
|
||||
it's a one-time unlock for this copy of the app; updates installed through
|
||||
QBZ's own updater don't need it again.
