Mandatory Update for MacOS Big Sur Users

VITAE Core v4.5.1 is a mandatory release only for MacOS users who are using the latest version of OSX (Big Sur). It is optional for all other users. The primary changes are fixing OSX Big Sur compatibility.

For MacOS users running Catalina or Big Sur, please install vitae-4.5.1-macos-big-sur-unsigned.dmg. For Big Sur machines with the new M1 chip, please run the application using Rosetta.
For MacOS users running High Sierra, please install vitae-4.5.1-osx-high-sierra-unsigned.dmg.
For MacOS users running older unsupported versions, you can try installing vitae-4.5.1-osx-unsigned.dmg.

How to Upgrade

If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely shut down (which might take a few minutes for older versions), then run the installer (on Windows and MacOS) or just copy over vitaed/vitae-qt (on Linux).

Compatibility

VITAE Core is extensively tested on multiple operating systems using
the Linux kernel, MacOS 10.13+, and Windows 8.1 and later.

Microsoft ended support for Windows 7 as of [January 14th, 2020].
Apple ended suppot for MacOS 10.12 as of [October, 2019].
No attempt is made to prevent installing or running the software on Windows 7 or earlier versions, or MacOS 10.12 or earlier versions. You can still do so at your own risk but be aware that there may be instabilities and issues.
Please do not report issues about unsupported versions of Windows or MacOS to the issue tracker.

VITAE should also work on most other Unix-like systems but is not frequently tested on them.

Notable Changes

MacOS Big Sur Compatibility

The primary change in this release is to help ensure compatibility with MacOS 11 (Big Sur) and the newest Mac hardware that uses the M1 chip.
