GS 3.07rc2 out now: Mac Mountain Lion binary now runs on Mac Yosemite out of the box

ak19. Wednesday, August 26th, 2015.

Good news for Mac Yosemite users out there (and possibly Mac Maverick users too): the current Greenstone 3.07 release-candidate binaries now include a JRE with the Mac Mountain Lion binary. This allows the Greenstone 3.07-rc2 Mountain Lion installer to now run out of the box on Mac Yosemite machines. You may still need to change the security settings on your Mac to allow you to open dmg binary files not created by Apple, as this is a new security feature on Macs, but otherwise the Greenstone installer and the Greenstone applications once installed should run fine on Yosemite too.

We’ve decided to come out with another intermediate release candidate, because the major change we’ve made are specific to a Mac binary this time. That means there is still time for Greenstone users to find and report on bugs, and for translators to add further translations and send these back in to us for inclusion in the upcoming official 3.07 release. Therefore, please do try out the current 3.07 rc2 release by heading on over to the Snapshots page, and let us know how the binaries fare, so we can improve them for the official release.
