The module has been designed to match the internet RFC on Relative Uniform
Resource Locators. It supports the following URL schemes: ``file``, ``ftp``,
-``gopher``, ``hdl``, ``http``, ``https``, ``imap``, ``mailto``, ``mms``,

``news``, ``nntp``, ``prospero``, ``rsync``, ``rtsp``, ``rtsps``, ``rtspu``,
``sftp``, ``shttp``, ``sip``, ``sips``, ``snews``, ``svn``, ``svn+ssh``,

+.. impl-detail::
+
+ The inclusion of the ``itms-services`` URL scheme can prevent an app from
+ passing Apple's App Store review process for the macOS and iOS App Stores.
+ Handling for the ``itms-services`` scheme is always removed on iOS; on
+ macOS, it *may* be removed if CPython has been built with the
+ :option:`--with-app-store-compliance` option.
+
The :mod:`urllib.parse` module defines functions that fall into two broad
categories: URL parsing and URL quoting. These are covered in detail in
the following sections.
Specify the name for the python framework on macOS only valid when
:option:`--enable-framework` is set (default: ``Python``).
+.. option:: --with-app-store-compliance
+.. option:: --with-app-store-compliance=PATCH-FILE
+
+ The Python standard library contains strings that are known to trigger
+ automated inspection tool errors when submitted for distribution by
+ the macOS and iOS App Stores. If enabled, this option will apply the list of
+ patches that are known to correct app store compliance. A custom patch
+ file can also be specified. This option is disabled by default.
+
+ .. versionadded:: 3.13

* If you're using a separate folder for third-party packages, ensure that folder
is included as part of the ``PYTHONPATH`` configuration in step 10.
+
+App Store Compliance
+====================
+
+The only mechanism for distributing apps to third-party iOS devices is to
+submit the app to the iOS App Store; apps submitted for distribution must pass
+Apple's app review process. This process includes a set of automated validation
+rules that inspect the submitted application bundle for problematic code.
+
+The Python standard library contains some code that is known to violate these
+automated rules. While these violations appear to be false positives, Apple's
+review rules cannot be challenged; so, it is necessary to modify the Python
+standard library for an app to pass App Store review.
+
+The Python source tree contains
+:source:`a patch file <Mac/Resources/app-store-compliance.patch>` that will remove
+all code that is known to cause issues with the App Store review process. This
+patch is applied automatically when building for iOS.
* `PyInstaller <https://pyinstaller.org/>`__: A cross-platform packaging tool that creates
a single file or folder as a distributable artifact.
+App Store Compliance
+--------------------
+
+Apps submitted for distribution through the macOS App Store must pass Apple's
+app review process. This process includes a set of automated validation rules
+that inspect the submitted application bundle for problematic code.
+
+The Python standard library contains some code that is known to violate these
+automated rules. While these violations appear to be false positives, Apple's
+review rules cannot be challenged. Therefore, it is necessary to modify the
+Python standard library for an app to pass App Store review.
+
+The Python source tree contains
+:source:`a patch file <Mac/Resources/app-store-compliance.patch>` that will remove
+all code that is known to cause issues with the App Store review process. This
+patch is applied automatically when CPython is configured with the
+:option:`--with-app-store-compliance` option.
+
+This patch is not normally required to use CPython on a Mac; nor is it required
+if you are distributing an app *outside* the macOS App Store. It is *only*
+required if you are using the macOS App Store as a distribution channel.
