Hello,

I have some strange Problems with Lazarus on Mac OS X 10.8.3.
Sometimes I'm not able to start Lazarus or my compiled applications.

For example:
I made a project and compiled it. It runs fine
But when I copy the project.app to a other folder and start it, the
mac say that the application is not runnable and it could be damaged
(See screenshot)

I don't have so much experience with mac, so I hope you can help  me

This is not a bug.

The apparently weird behaviour is a consequence of the structure of
applications in Mac OS X, which are in fact folders rather than files.
Details and ways to make a self-contained application are described in
