Aquamacs.app mounted?

[Ettore Aldrovandi]

Hello,

I have just installed 3.3 (having used the preview for a while). I have noticed that when I run Aquamacs I have

/Applications/Aquamacs.app

mounted on

/private/var/folders/vr/1t7psy5d55n1btxcw32gz9sm0000gn/T/AppTranslocation/8B545328-54A5-4B68-AF2E-29B0FE10BD7A

Is this normal? The mount disappears after quitting the app.

Yes. It is a security feature of the operation system. I thought it only happened when you run an application from the DMG, not when it is installed in /Applications.

Thanks. Something must have happened: I deleted and re-installed it, and now the mount is gone.
