Re: Mac packaging update

 

So there is another issue I am facing with new mac packaging.

If I removed everything related to kicad and also do clean up as follows:

rm -rf  ~/Library/Saved Application State/org.kicad-pcb.kicad.savedState
rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/kicad
rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/kicad
rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/org.kicad-pcb.kicad.plist

And fresh Install kicad from built dmg again
kicad.app stop working and it stuck for forever, although
bitmap2component.app, eeschema.app, gerbview.app, pcb_calculator.app ,
pcbnew.app and pl_editor.app are working fine.
