When trying to open the application in Catalina, after unpacking and running the application, a message pops up saying:
It seems to be caused by a couple of issues. The first is the quarantine extended attribute on the application (and all files below it).
➜ Desktop xattr -l Osprey.app
com.apple.quarantine: 0183;5ec9b1bd;Safari;55894F4A-3BE8-4A37-8DC4-5B8947137275
This is usually used to prompt users to verify they want to run an application they downloaded from the internet. But that's not what the error message is indicating. A little deeper searching found this:
➜ Desktop codesign --verify --verbose --verbose=4 ./Osprey.app
./Osprey.app: code has no resources but signature indicates they must be present
The app is failing its code sign checks, hence the error message. It turns out this is a known bug in jpackager and jlink, see this and this.
