The current directory at launch is the root directory of the app bundle. This means that any files written to the current directory when an app is executed, will be placed there. This becomes a problem when the app is rebuilt (and resigned), because a valid macOS app bundle doesn't have any files in the root directory of the app bundle, so signing fails. We have logic to automatically crash crash reports from the app bundle, but it turns out this is a more common problem with other types of files (and folders), so improve the logic a bit: * Add support for setting a property to automatically clean up everything from an app bundle we don't think should be there (which is anything not in a Contents/ subdirectory). * Use the same property to add support for disabling any cleaning (we already clean mono's crash reports by default). * Improve detection of unwanted files to include directories inside the app bundle, not only files. Ref: dotnet/maui#7353

In our particular case, the issue was related to custom build steps, that created extra files and preventing the app from being properly signed. |
