Thanks Peter,

For all the hard work (and patience with us....).

Did anybody already test it on a mac? Or should we wait for this
homebrew-osgeo4mac downgrade you are talking about?

Looking at: https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Mac-Packager
Do we need any install instructions there, or is it obvious for MacUsers
( /me was wondering if the DMG was enough, or 'I' also need the DEPS :-) ).

Anybody volunteering to make it clear for our users what the difference
is between the two installers, and write it down on
https://qgis.org/en/site/forusers/download.html
in the mac section?

We will endup with:
https://qgis.org/downloads/macOS/ (Kynchaos builds)
https://qgis.org/downloads/macos/ (Mac Packaging builds)
yes?
