<!-- See our full bug reporting guidelines at https://inkscape.org/contribute/report-bugs/ Writing a good bug report will ensure we'll be able to help efficiently. 🙂 --> #### Summary: <!-- Summarize the issue/suggestion concisely: --> macOS Inkscape app reported in system profiler as "iOS" app (resp. "arch_ios") rather than "Apple Chips" (resp. "arch_arm" or "arch_arm_i64") app on an Apple Silicon System. #### Steps to reproduce: <!-- Describe what you did (step-by-step) so we can reproduce: --> 1. Open System Profiler app ('/System/Applications/Utilities/System Information.app') 2. Go to Section "Software" -> "Applications" 3. Select row of Inkscape app in column "Application Name" and have a look look at column "Kind" Alternatively, via Terminal: ``` % system_profiler SPApplicationsDataType -xml | grep Inkscape -A 9 -B 2 ``` or resp. ``` % system_profiler SPApplicationsDataType -xml | grep Inkscape -A 9 -B 2 | head -n 5 | grep -A 1 arch_kind ``` #### What happened? Inkscape app is shown as "iOS" resp. "arch_ios". #### What should have happened? Inkscape app is shown as "Apple Chips" resp. "arch_arm". Sample attachments: <!-- Attach the sample file(s) highlighting the issue, if appropriate. --> ### Proposed simple fix/solution: Add a _CFBundleSupportedPlatforms_ key with _MacOSX_ as its only platform to the app's _Info.plist_ file: ``` <key>CFBundleSupportedPlatforms</key> <array> <string>MacOSX</string> </array> ``` ### Additional context See also similar discussions/fixes around that type of issue on: LibreOffice Bug 144200: LibreOffice 7.2 for ARM on Apple Silicon claims its an iOS application https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=144200 LibreOffice Commit: Add CFBundleSupportedPlatforms key with MacOSX as its only platform https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+/562a40f453caa003187ff28c7798647d9e0b4ded%5E%21 Microsoft issue #157551: VS Code Apple Silicon build is identified as an iOS app in macOS system info https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/157551 Microsoft issue #121169, issuecomment 820653677: M1 VSCode binary can be run on iOS? https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/121169#issuecomment-820653677 BTW: Apple's own macOS apps and most third party apps contain that key in their Info.plist, so, it can't be wrong or invalid and is there for a reason, although not or poorly documented by Apple. #### Version info <!-- Open 'Help > About' and click on the little bug icon in the bottom right corner that copies the debug information to your clipboard.
