For about a week I have been trying to download tex from the <a
href="http://tug.org" class="" moz-do-not-send="true">tug.org</a> site
for my Mac OSCatalina 10.15.2.
<div class="">The download package does not work. When I click on
the download link on the <a href="http://tug.org" class=""
moz-do-not-send="true">tug.org</a> page the download program
appears in downloads on my computer but it is darkened out and
I cannot click on It.<br>

Might this be relevant, John ?<br>

<blockquote type="cite">MacTeX-2019 works fine on Catalina once it
is installed. When Catalina was first released to developers,
Apple said that install packages for Catalina must be notarized
and software installed must adopt a hardened runtime. These
conditions hold for BasicTeX-2019 and Ghostscript, but not for
MacTeX-2019. However, the requirements have been turned off for
most betas of Catalina and seem to be still off in the release
version, so MacTeX-2019 should install without trouble. <br>
<br>
In one beta version of Catalina, perhaps beta 5, the restriction
was turned on and the MacTeX-2019 install package refused to
install.
An experimental notarized version of MacTeX-2019 installed fine
during that beta
period and is available at <a
href="http://tug.org/%7Ekoch/MacTeX-2019.pkg">
<b>http://tug.org/~koch/MacTeX-2019.pkg</b></a>. It will replace
the old MacTeX-2019 install package as soon as Apple reinstates
the notarization restriction.
