nice, is this using notarytool?

Can't remember, it's been a while since I last looked at the video. But if it doesn't let me know and I'll send you my current script which does use it and handles the aax stuff too.

@Lindon Are you running the secret "beta"? (Serious question.)

[Dan Korneff]

@Lindon I had a bunch of silly permissions things recently with Packages. I had to check the "keep owner and group" box to fix it. It lists my computer as the owner and "staff" as group, which I though was strange, but it changes to the end user's account when they install.

@clevername27 of Packages? I was sent a Beta by the Dev a few weeks ago after this happened to me. Can PM if needed, but it may well be too old / release version now... 1.2.11

oh ok , cool thanks mate I will try this too...

[clevername27]

@Lindon …secret in that you have to just "know about it", since it's not listed anywhere on their website.

[clevername27]

@clevername27 Oh gosh, I just saw this. I didn't mean to blow off your question. I may have noped out of HISE at that point. In any case, he's got a new version of Packages that specifically supports audio plugins (plus whatever is in HISE these days).

Who's he?

[clevername27]

@David-Healey Seth Willits, Araelium Group

[David Healey]

@clevername27 ah ok, what's the benefit over whitebox packages?

[clevername27]

@David-Healey It works (no bugs), and thanks to your truly, it has built-in support for installing audio plugins.,

[DanH]

@clevername27 is that a new addition? I bought it when it was first released but found I couldn't do some of the things I was doing in Whitebox and haven't tried it again since

[clevername27]

@DanH Yes, it is a brand new addition.

[DanH]

@clevername27 ah cool, I'll give it another go

Can you elaborate?

Ok well I'm assuming we are talking about Package Builder here... its not clear above but heres the URL: https://www.araelium.com/packagebuilder

So my "...support for installing audio plugins" question is:

Can I point the destination at the system folder for plugins? i.e

~/Library/Audio/Plugins

and not the ~/users//Library version of this path?

..and get it to ask the user for the relevant password when they run it. In other words avoiding all those silly Mac permissions problems...

[David Healey]

@Lindon said in WhiteBox Packages Nightmare on Sonoma:

~/Library/Audio/Plugins

That's the default with WhiteBox.

Thats not my experience.....but I will admit its been a while since I used it.

In fact wasnt there a whole video demo (maybe one of your Dave?) explaining the required additional scripting to move the plugin to the system folders?
