iTerm2 crashed on launch due to missing library BetterFontPicker.

[JacksonBailey (Jackson Bailey)]

After launching iTerm2 by installing with port I get this error. Note, this crash report is from the Crash Reporter after installing iTerm2 manually and launching it successfully. It is detecting the previous launch from port but I see the same error mentioned (Library not loaded: @rpath/BetterFontPicker.framework/Versions/A/BetterFontPicker) so I trust it.

I'm seeing something at least very similar. The report seems to be referring to the library having code signature issues?

[markemer (Mark Anderson)]

This was fixed, but seems to have reappeared. iTerm2 is becoming harder and harder to maintain because it's binaries are very backward compatible, but its builds are not.

[cvengler (cve)]

I can confirm that this continues to exist on M2 Sequoia.

[markemer (Mark Anderson)]

Yeah, I'm currently totally overhauling iTerm2 to bring us up to a modern version. It's a little slow going, but it's on it's way.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Has duplicate #72652.

[markemer (Mark Anderson)]

This is still popping up - this port is a real pain as you can really only build on very new macOS versions. I think we may need to fall back to binaries for older systems, or just support the latest, or kill it entirely. I'll dig into it again, any ideas are welcome.

[FrancisBehnen (Francis Behnen)]

I'm on macOS 15.6.1 on a M3 and I get the same error, no system updates available. Is it now broken for all OS versions?

iTerm2: Fix hardened runtime-related Library Validation loading issues

Disable optional hardened runtime until there is an alternative to
ad-hoc codesigning of MacPorts binaries.

Opting into the hardened runtime enables Library Validation, however
this causes problems with the ad-hoc codesigned binaries MacPorts
generates and ships for iTerm2.
