1.5.5 MacOS release actually contains the Linux executable (and so doesn't work)

[JoeStrout]

I just downloaded the Mac package for the 1.5.5 beta. But after unzipping it and installing it as directed, the .command works fine at verifying the installation and copying the config files, but then when it attempts to run the actual executable, that fails with

zsh: exec format error: ./StardewXnbHack

So I used the file command to see exactly what this exe is, and it says:

StardewXnbHack: ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, 
interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, 
BuildID[sha1]=1cfaaf19b37c906e12f121854b3a6b45c6c9bdf7, stripped

Looks to me like somebody accidentally zipped up the Linux executable into the Mac package.

Hi! That's not a mistake, the Linux build works on macOS too. If it doesn't work for you, can you come ask in #making-mods on the Stardew Valley Discord so we can run some tests? (Feel free to ping me there with @Pathoschild#0001.)

Thanks for testing! Fixed in develop for the upcoming 1.0.6.
