Research direction

Start at the packageinstall step containing the TARGET_KERNEL, TARGET_ARCHITECTURE, and is_arm64_test_bitcoin_signed conditional. Check which platforms the signing path currently covers and whether the Darwin guard matches the intended package behavior. Done means the conditional signs only the appropriate packages and the existing package-install checks still pass.

      ! is_arm64_test_bitcoin_signed "${target_bitcoin_version}"; then
Describe the Solution

See if we should also only sign packages if it's Darwin
