Toasted golden, schmeared with insight. Top of the rack.
Summary
The Gutenprint project has officially deprecated MacOS support as of July 7, 2024, meaning no further MacOS-compatible binaries will be produced. The project has lacked an active MacOS maintainer for over three years, and the remaining developers do not have the technical capability to produce binaries for newer MacOS versions (post-Mojave/10.14). Support will continue for older MacOS versions (≤10.14) through existing documentation.
