Sparkle update qualification

This pre-release is for Pear's app-update validation only. It is not the first stable release and is not linked from the download page or Homebrew.

What is being tested

  • Show the installed and available app versions, with release notes in Pear.
  • Choose Update and launch or Later. Failed update checks must continue to Steam.
  • Replace the signed build 6 baseline with signed build 7 and reopen Pear.
  • Preserve installed games, saved progress and sharing preferences.

Both test apps use the same 0.1.0 marketing version; their build numbers distinguish the update. The baseline is updater-enabled test software. Legacy preview releases without Sparkle still require one manual installation.

Wine 11.0 and DXMT 0.80 continue to use Pear's existing installation and validation path. This app update does not replace the runtime. Sparkle system profiling is disabled and report-sharing consent remains separate.

Source: 08bfd10. Developer ID signing, Apple notarization and macOS 15 startup checks passed. Real update and recovery qualification is in progress; this release does not claim that those checks have passed.
