[Bug]: How to installation sigil for mac

[ioudove]

Bug Description

Hello, I am a person who does not know anything about computers. When I run the code "codesign -dvvv Sigil.app" in the terminal, the result is "Sigil.app: No such file or directory" I don't know what to do anymore. When I download Sigil.app-1.9.10-Mac.txz, should I extract it and drag the extracted file into the application on my mac as a first step? Can you please answer my question? The more detailed explanation of the installation steps, the better. Thank you so much!

Are you building mac OS from source? Apple verifies the code signing signature. After downloading the .txz file move it out of Downloads onto your Desktop. Then double-click it on newer macOS systems to unpack it. On older macOS systems you will need a free UnArchiver program.

All of this is documented on our website: https://sigil-ebook.com/sigil/tips/#how-to-uncompress-tarxz-or-txz-files
