This seems not to work on macOS 10.13 High Sierra anymore?

Tested this on 2 Macs, after installing munkitools 5.7.0.4415 beta 1 on macOS 10.13 High Sierra:

An annoying GUI dialog that just comes up all the time:
Python quit unexpectedly

managedsoftwareupdate --version
Segmentation fault: 11

/usr/local/munki/Python.framework/Versions/3.10/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python -V
Python 3.10.4

 
Possibly some issue with PyObjC or too high minimum version when Python was built?

As standard Python 3.10 seems to work with 10.9 can we still keep the same minimum as previously, if technically possible (10.11?).

Thanks for the report. It’s going to be difficult for me to test on anything below 10.14. If this isn’t a simple fix, I may just drop support for macOS < 10.14 in Munki 5.7. It’s really only me working on this!

Hi Greg,

I think it would be OK for Munki 5.7 to support macOS 10.14+.

But if you provide newer betas I can test even down to OS X 10.11 if needed.

I have plenty of old Macs around to test on. 

-Miq Viq

[Greg Neagle]

Without a <10.14 machine to test on, or more detailed info on what exactly is failing, I would have zero idea what changes to make for “newer betas [you] can test even down to OS X 10.11”

OK, should I create an issue in munki-github for this?

Then I could possibly provide more detailed information what is broken?

-MiqViq

[Greg Neagle]

That would probably be good.

I’m seeing the same issue in 10.14 (though not 10.15). Same symptoms that MiqViq reported below. 

I’ll keep my eyes open for a Github issue and can provide more information there.

[MiqViq]

Sorry but I am too lazy to make this an github-issue...

I tested building relocatable_python (I changed the pyobjc-requirement only, I did not change other pip requirements) using included bash-script and found out the following:

Crashes on macOS 10.13.6
pyobjc==8.2

OK on macOS 10.13.6
pyobjc==8.5
pyobjc==8.4
pyobjc==8.3
pyobjc==8.1
pyobjc==7.3

OK means that managedsoftwareupdate --version gives valid output, other thatn that I do not know...

Test builds were done both on macOS 11.6.5 and macOS 10.15.7.

Maybe it is safe to use pyobjc==8.5 wiht the next beta?

-MiqViq

[MiqViq]

..and I can confirm that 5.7 beta 1 with pyobjc 8.2 crashes on Mojave too.

-MiqViq

[Greg Neagle]

Thank you for this.

I tried building a new Python.framework with PyObjC==8.5 and encountered this issue (under Xcode 13.2.1/macOS 12.3.1/Apple silicon):

"ScreenCaptureKit” is not required for Munki to function, but it would be nice to get a clean build, if for no other reason than eliminating questions/issues from people running `make_munki_mpkg.sh`.

I’ll try PyObjC==8.4 next.

All right. After a lot of trial-and-error, I have a build of Munki 5.7 with PyObjC 8.5. It seems to work as expected under macOS 10.14.6, whereas an install of 5.7.0.4415 (Beta 1) fails with "Segmentation fault: 11”. No testing on macOS < 10.14 as I don’t currently have access to a machine I can test.

I’ll have a new Beta 2 available shortly.

Hi Greg,

I tested the latest munkitools 5.7 b2 on various macOS versions.

Testing was done only using command managedsoftwareupdate --version.

10.15.7 Catalina - OK
11.6.5 Big Sur - OK
12.3.1 Monterey - OK

All these older systems returned munki version without Segmentation Fault 11-error and are probably OK too:

10.11.6 El Capitan - OK
10.12.6 Sierra - OK
10.13.6 High Sierra - OK
10.14.6 Mojave - OK

-MiqViq

[Greg Neagle]

Thanks for this update. It would be extraordinarily helpful to have test results for more than `managedsoftwareupdate —version`. I tested both `managedsoftwareupdate` and `managedsoftwareupdate —installonly` on a test Mojave machine (and they worked as expected).

Readers: please test!

I tested b2 on 10.12.6 and 10.14.6, launching Managed Software Center and installing and uninstalling an app while viewing the log. Looked and functioned as expected, no errors.

I figure it’s safe to assume that 10.13.6 would be fine as well.

I don’t have access to an 10.11.6 VM (I tried but my version of Fusion just laughed at me).

Thanks for this fix, Greg.

[Greg Neagle]

Thanks for the testing.

There have really almost no changes to Managed Software Center.app and MunkiStatus.app since 5.6.4, and they are Swift apps anyway, and would not be affected by the Python and PyObjC changes. It’s the command-line tools that seem to have been affected, and will require the most testing.

Makes sense. I tested managedsoftwareupdate with the following options on both 10.12.6 and 10.14.6 and found no issues:

—checkonly (with varying levels of verbosity)

—installonly

—quiet

—show-config

—set-bootstrap-mode

—clear-bootstrap-mode

 I tested managedsoftwareupdate with the following options on 10.11.6, 10.12.6 and 10.13.6 and did not find any issues:

--checkonly -vvvvv

--installonly

--auto

--show-config

--set-bootstrap-mode

--clear-bootstrap-mode

Also MSC GUI seems to work ok, did not test all possible scenarios with GUI app.

[MiqViq]

And my testing on legacy OS versions was done with munki 5.7.b2
