Yes we (YesLogic) had to switch to zip because the macOS notarisation service does not support tar balls.

The notary service accepts disk images (UDIF format), signed flat installer packages, and ZIP archives.

This isn't my/YesLogic code, it's a third-party community maintained package.

My apologies @wezm; was responding via email and did not pay enough attention. Kudos for wading into the issues on community projects. :)

If anyone else hits this on macOS installing a global version of Prince is a temporary workaround. ✨
