 Replying to [comment:16 JeffPaul]:
 > Unless I'm misunderstanding things, it seems there's a workaround here
 where impacted plugin authors can STOP using the MacOS UI for generating
 ZIPs and START using the command line to do so.  If that does resolve the
 issue, albeit not resolved within the WP codebase, then I think keeping
 this as `priority=normal` and `severity=normal` feels accurate.

 around 26 March 2024.

 This is not a solution, only a workaround that 90% of MAC users will NOT
 understand. Not only authors are affected, even every normal mac user, who
 zips a folder locally, is AFFECTED.

 For me this is still a critical issue. You will get more and more tickets
 about this in the next hours / days. The CHECKCONS was not there since
 years, so please just remove it as soon as possilbe and everybody is fine.
