electron-forge publish hangs on "Preparing native dependencies"

[jamesg31]

Pre-flight checklist

• I have read the contribution documentation for this project.
• I agree to follow the code of conduct that this project uses.
• I have searched the issue tracker for a bug that matches the one I want to file, without success.

Electron Forge version

7.4.0

Electron version

v30.0.6

Operating system

Github Runner, macos-latest

Last known working Electron Forge version

No response

Expected behavior

The github runner will build and publish.

Actual behavior

The runner hangs on the "preparing native dependencies" step, with no error or further info, only for the OSX build. For windows it build fine. I suspect this may have something to do with code signing.

Steps to reproduce

My forge config:

import type { ForgeConfig } from "@electron-forge/shared-types";
import { MakerSquirrel } from "@electron-forge/maker-squirrel";
import { MakerDMG } from "@electron-forge/maker-dmg";
import { AutoUnpackNativesPlugin } from "@electron-forge/plugin-auto-unpack-natives";
import { WebpackPlugin } from "@electron-forge/plugin-webpack";
import { FusesPlugin } from "@electron-forge/plugin-fuses";
import { FuseV1Options, FuseVersion } from "@electron/fuses";

import { mainConfig } from "./webpack.main.config";
import { rendererConfig } from "./webpack.renderer.config";

const config: ForgeConfig = {
  packagerConfig: {
    asar: true,
    icon: "./src/assets/icon",
    osxSign: {
      identity: `Developer ID Application: ${process.env.APPLE_IDENTITY!}`,
    },
    osxNotarize: {
      appleId: process.env.APPLE_ID!,
      appleIdPassword: process.env.APPLE_PASSWORD!,
      teamId: process.env.APPLE_TEAM_ID!,
    },
  },
  rebuildConfig: {},
  makers: [new MakerSquirrel({}), new MakerDMG({})],
  plugins: [
    new AutoUnpackNativesPlugin({}),
    new WebpackPlugin({
      mainConfig,
      devContentSecurityPolicy: "connect-src 'self' * 'unsafe-eval'",
      renderer: {
        config: rendererConfig,
        entryPoints: [
          {
            html: "./src/main/index.html",
            js: "./src/main/renderer.ts",
            name: "main_window",
            preload: {
              js: "./src/preload.ts",
            },
          },
        ],
      },
    }),
    // Fuses are used to enable/disable various Electron functionality
    // at package time, before code signing the application
    new FusesPlugin({
      version: FuseVersion.V1,
      [FuseV1Options.RunAsNode]: false,
      [FuseV1Options.EnableCookieEncryption]: true,
      [FuseV1Options.EnableNodeOptionsEnvironmentVariable]: false,
      [FuseV1Options.EnableNodeCliInspectArguments]: false,
      [FuseV1Options.EnableEmbeddedAsarIntegrityValidation]: true,
      [FuseV1Options.OnlyLoadAppFromAsar]: true,
    }),
  ],
  publishers: [
    {
      name: "@electron-forge/publisher-github",
      config: {
        repository: {
          owner: "jamesg31",
          name: "sonoron-radio-dispatch-ui",
        },
        prerelease: true,
      },
    },
  ],
};

export default config;

Hi @jamesg31, if no additional debug information is provided, please try DEBUG=electron-*, which should also pull in debug logs from packager, notarize, and osx-sign :)
