Use the non-deprecated depends_on macos symbol form#13
Conversation
Homebrew deprecated the string comparison form (">= :sonoma") for
depends_on macos in casks; the bare symbol form (:sonoma) means the
same thing (Sonoma or newer) without the deprecation warning. Updates
both the packaging script and the CI-generated cask so they stay in
sync.
