Yay picobit!

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1139081/ArmoryTestingReleases/Armory.app.0.89.99.9-testing.tar.gz

That 40 MB tar.gz unpacks into a 136 MB Armory.app directory, which should be double-clickable to run Armory. I successfully compiled it on my MacMini, after review the build-app.py script that picobit gave me, and then successfully running it. There was a few hiccups in the build process, but it ultimately worked. And kudos to picobit for not only giving me a script, but being diligent about creating and sorting log files for each command so I could easily figure out what went wrong.

Please test it on your OSX system. Especially on 10.9, and especially on any systems where the download from the webpage didn't work. I want to find out if this .app works better than the one we originally got from higuys. I'm hopeful based on els' statements that it worked on both 10.8 and 10.9, but I definitely need more empirical evidence.

By the way, this is actually 0.89.99.9. This has a feature merged in from CircusPeanut that fixes the broadcast issue people experience when using older versions of Armory on the offline computer. The issue was that the core devs implemented a soft-rule requiring normalized signature padding, and older versions of Armory didn't do that. Thus when you sign with the older version, the tx will be rejected if you are running Bitcoin-Qt/bitcoin 0.8.2 or newer. This version works around that by exploiting the same transaction malleability that the core devs were trying to reduce! It adjusts the signature padding of the already-signed transaction -- it changes the hash of the transaction but makes the transaction not only valid, but isStandard() so it will broadcast correctly.

If you are experiencing that broadcast issue, you can: (Linux) Pull the latest testing branch and use that (OSX) Use this .app (Windows) Wait for the next testing release.

It is working for me on OSX 10.9, it is says "preparing database" so once is it finished I will reply, but it started! That is big plus!

EDIT: Now it is Building the database!

this new (0.89.99.9) build is also working well for me on OS X 10.9. awesome; very promising!
