Hi , I'm looking in to upgrade my over clocked killer workstation i7 Hackintosh from Yosemite to macOS Sierra.
But I'm hearing issue with Gatekeeper , as I used tonymacx86.com to build my Hackintosh I did some research
and it seems that's Apple has removed this option . But if you had it setup in EL Capitan it will continue to work
if not then you will have to enable it with Terminal.

Here are the commands for terminal

Allow from Anywhere (Turns off the Gatekeeper checks)
sudo spctl --master-disable

Re-enable Gatekeeper
sudo spctl --master-enable

You can read about it here from tonymacx86.com

Excellent find @reddeercity as I was wondering the same after upgrading to 10.12 and noticed I couldn't compile anymore. Hopefully @dfort will get this resolved for OS X at some point!

You're overestimating me. What @reddeercity brought up is what I had to do in order to get apps to run from "unidentified" developers like @Danne. Basically the System Preferences in Sierra looks like this now:



but turning off spctl (gatekeeper) will give you this:


By the way this doesn't seem to be a problem if you compile from source--another reason for ML users on Mac to setup a development system. I'd like to hear from someone going through my Compiling Magic Lantern on a Macintosh tutorial for the first time on Sierra.
