[Error] macOS app start fails

[abelaska]

OK, I've tried to start master scuttle-shell on macOS 10.13.6 and it kind a failed. Here's install console output.

How can I help more?

[cryptix]

Ah.. sorry, somehow you got v0.0.3 of the systrayhelper. This shouldn’t happen with 0.0.4 or a newer version of forked-systray - I guess some package locked it down.

[cryptix]

Yes, bumping forked-systray to patch 9 and running npm I again should make this work.

[abelaska]

ok, I confirm that switching "forked-systray" to "^3.0.10" followed by npm i fixed the problem.

[mixmix]

This is a duplicate of #20 I think

I noticed using the windowsInstall branch worked to get 0.0.4
But then there's still an error
