Awaiting assistance from a DTS engineer regarding a peculiar notarization issue.

Hello,

Our company's software successfully passes the notarization process when exported through Xcode Archive and compressed into a zip file. However, it fails notarization when packaged into a pkg using the Packages software (version 1.2.10), consistently returning the error "The signature of the binary is invalid." We need assistance to resolve this issue.

Here are some specific details on the signature statuses and notarization information:

xcrun stapler validation: Successful

xcrun stapler validate Maxi\ PC\ Suite.app Processing: /Users/autel/Desktop/test11/files/Maxi PC Suite.app The validate action worked! pkgutil signature check: Successful
