MacOS Catalina Update — Security Issues w/ FoxDot and SC3 Plugins

The recent Catalina update seems to be causing problems with FoxDot/SuperCollider. Whenever I try to run FoxDot through the terminal, Catalina flags every single .scx in the SC3Plugins folder as being unverified. There doesn’t seem to be a way to tell Catalina to allow these files to run.

I think you can now download a signed release of the latest supercollider which solves this

I followed all the build instructions in the signed release but OSX is still flagging every .scx file when I run FoxDot from SuperCollider. I’m at a loss here…

EDIT:

The problem was with the SC3Plugins, not SuperCollider. Replacing those with the signed version worked. Thanks!
