Description
We use Munki to deploy over 400 applications to our lab systems and got a request to see if we could deploy Jalview to some of them.
When we repackage this for deployment, only the user that installed the package is able to run the application. Other users who log into the system are unable to fully launch the .app.
Can the Mac version of Jalview be looked at to make it a multi-user application? The attached screenshot shows what a second user logging into the same computer gets when they run Jalview after the first user who installed it successfully has already run the program. This makes Jalview unsuitable for multi-user systems (such as our lab environments)
Please feel free to reach out to me directly if you have other questions.
