Description Ben Cotton 2020-05-27 12:13:03 UTC
As reported upstream (https://github.com/FedoraQt/MediaWriter/issues/217): the application doesn't write anything to the disk, even though it says "writing".

Opening this bug for the purpose of the Fedora Prioritized Bugs process.

Comment 1 Ben Cotton 2020-06-03 15:40:45 UTC
In today's meeting, we agreed to accept this as a prioritized bug:

Comment 2 Ben Cotton 2020-06-16 18:46:13 UTC
Martin, do you have an update on the Catalina support possibilities we discussed in the last Prioritized Bugs meeting?

Comment 3 Jan Grulich 2020-06-17 05:45:30 UTC
I will try to look into that. I'm currently waiting for a hardware and then I guess it will take a while until I find out as I have never used MacOS before.

Comment 4 Jan Grulich 2020-07-01 05:39:01 UTC
Update: I have a MacBook and I started working on it.

Comment 5 Jan Grulich 2020-07-03 06:24:20 UTC
We have a working solution, which is currently on review here → https://github.com/FedoraQt/MediaWriter/pull/256. I think or hope we can have a release soon.

Comment 6 Jan Grulich 2020-07-06 16:46:28 UTC
We are currently blocked here: https://pagure.io/releng/issue/9577.

Comment 7 Ben Cotton 2020-07-10 16:29:25 UTC
Updating the bug status and clearing NEEDINFO. I'll ping releng in their ticket about the signing.

Comment 8 Ben Cotton 2020-08-11 13:34:24 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 33 development cycle.
Changing version to 33.

Comment 9 Ben Cotton 2020-09-16 15:24:10 UTC
Binaries are signed and released.
