I guess Phil already knows this but exiftool 12.79 Mac installer has this new alert:

"Legacy Installer Package
This installer package will be incompatible with a future version of macOS. Contact the developer for support."

Hi Matti,

This shouldn't be new with 12.79.  But yes, eventually Apple will stop supporting this, and will also stop supporting Perl at some point.  When this happens you'll have to install them manually or use something like homebrew.
