[ EDIT: i should probably mention my environment:
mac mini m2 pro running ventura v13.3 ]

first off thank you so much for archiving and maintaining this project. this is one of my favorite vst synths and i was pretty bummed when i discovered it had gone cold for a while.

i tried running the latest macos installer (dexed-0.9.6-macos), pulled from the Dexed site and the releases page (they appear to be mirrors).

Suspicious Package throws 2 critical issues

1. can't get list of files to be installed, since the component package "Standalone.pkg" is missing or corrupted

2. Can't analyze payload, since the component package "Standalone.pkg" is missing or corrupted

both have sub flags of

- the file "Info.plist" couldn't be opened
- the operation couldn't be completed. Not a directory.

i inspected the mpkg contents and found the "distribution.dist" script file in ./Contents/

on line 32:
file:./Contents/Packages/Standalone.pkg

additionally
./Contents/Packages contains the following

  	AU.pkg
  	Standalone.pkg
  	VST3.pkg

i am not familiar enough with metapackages to know if it's a pathing issue, or if it is somehow corrupted/damaged.

i was able to extract and export the vst3 and app files manually without launcing the respective pkg files, and can confirm that the standalone seems to be working fine.
