Today we are releasing KeePassXC 2.5.4, the fourth maintenance update for KeePassXC 2.5.

The update primarily resolves a compatibility issue with macOS 10.15.4 and 10.14.6. The most recent macOS security patches changed the way code signatures are checked resulting in a KeePassXC crash at startup. We published a quick workaround at the end of last month, for which we had to sacrifice TouchID support in order to allow you guys to continue using KeePassXC. This update ships with a full resolution of the code signing issue and brings back TouchID.
