    Description

       

      As per https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-107167 - Qt 6.4.1 apps are rejected from the Mac app store:

       

      Your app uses or references the following non-public or deprecated APIs:
      
      Symbols: _responsibility_get_pid_responsible_for_pid, _responsibility_spawnattrs_setdisclaim
      

       

      However, building Qt with

      -appstore-compliant

      does NOT fix the issue. 

       

      Tested with both 6.3.2 and 6.4.1, Qt built like so:

      git clone git://code.qt.io/qt/qt5.git
      cd qt5
      git checkout ${QT_VERSION}
      perl init-repository --module-subset=qtbase,qtwebview,qtshadertools,qtdeclarative,qtsvg 
      ./configure -feature-ipc_posix -feature-appstore-compliant -- -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES="x86_64;arm64"
      cmake --build . --parallel
      cmake --install .

       

      No problem with these symbols in 6.3.2:

      % egrep -oa "responsibility\w+"    /usr/local/Qt-6.3.2/lib/QtCore.framework/Versions/A/QtCore
      %

       

      But they are present in 6.4.1:

      % egrep -oa "responsibility\w+"    /usr/local/Qt-6.4.1/lib/QtCore.framework/Versions/A/QtCore
      _responsibility_get_pid_responsible_for_pid
      _responsibility_spawnattrs_setdisclaim
