Multiples errors during Macos version startup about albert

[LorenzoMorelli]

Thank you for your fast answer!
I see. Unfortunately apple with their strict policy don't stimulate free and open software development at all :(.
Anyhow, even thought its early stage and these issues, albert is usable and works well for its main purpose.

Unfortunately the macos version is still in development. Further afaik I need a developer account, which is pretty expensive, to sign the bundle. Otherwise Apple will not allow me to run the app on other hosts. However I use it successfully on my Mac. Compiling it yourself should work. However it's not that easy on mac, and again this ad-hoc sig last for a week only afaik (the internet is cluttered with misleading info, so I don't know for sure)

I'm gonna give it a shot then.

Also come back to this soon.

Looking forward to test new releases!

1. Python3.11 framework not found even though I have python3.11 installed

More on that next week or so

2. Translator plugin error into getting default locale even though I have exported the locales variables in my zshrc. Moreover, trying to get locales with a python script works well.

Apps launched using the ui don't care about interactive shell configuration. The locale is used from the system. But indeed I had this kind of issues too. But 4 has higher prio.

3. Sparkle_updater: Cannot load library [/Applications/albert.app/Contents/Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Versions/A/../../../Sparkle.framework/Versions/B/Sparkle' (no such file)]

Also come back to this soon.

4. Every time albert starts I get the welcome message in which it asks to enable accessibility permission even though I already did the first time: [To be able to paste text accessibility permissions are required. You will now be prompted to enable them in the settings.].

This is the signature problem if I understand things correctly.

Regarding the Python framework missing, I found the solution: I had installed python via brew and not from python installer which installs python in differents paths. The fastest way to solve this is therefore to install python3.11 from python original website. Regarding Translator plugin, I manually changed the code in order to use a string (with my locale) rather then getting it from locales, but of course it is not the proper way to do that.

The python interpreter should actually come bundled with the app. (well deployment is wip)

If anybody has the money loose or an apple developer license to give away I'd be happy to get this off the ground. But for now I am not willing pay for this project (besides the batshit insane enormous amount of time I put into this project).
