This would not affect security since the code would still be signed – and would enable anyone to check the integrity of apps supporting reproducible builds without endangering the integrity and security of their devices.īuilding your own reproducible binaries is difficult because macOS doesn't support containers like Docker. To solve this issue, Apple would simply need to allow submitting unencryptable binaries to the App Store.
