 crushing-smite | I am also okay with manually re-assigning the apple security permissions. But I really want the apps to show the latest version in launcher. | 18:59:55 |

 samasaur | linkApps should still create symlinks. Spotlight (and thus the app launcher in Tahoe onwards) don't pick up symlinks, so you probably want to use copyApps instead | 19:07:45 |
| samasaur | The general consensus is that copying apps is better in pretty much every metric | 19:08:14 |
| crushing-smite | Is app launcher = spotlight? | 19:08:48 |
| crushing-smite | like, same """app"""? | 19:09:11 |
| samasaur | I'm not actually sure what you're referring to when you say app launcher | 19:09:22 |
| samasaur | I assumed Launchpad, which is part of spotlight in Tahoe on | 19:09:40 |
| crushing-smite | https://www.iphonelife.com/sites/iphonelife.com/files/edit_launchpad_1.jpg | 19:09:45 |
| crushing-smite | probably the launchpad | 19:09:50 |
| samasaur | yeah that's launchpad | 19:09:54 |
| samasaur | separate thing before Tahoe, part of spotlight from Tahoe on | 19:10:18 |
| crushing-smite | enabling targets.darwin.copyApps.enable then. Does it require a reboot after rebuild? | 19:12:21 |
| crushing-smite |
If you did not get a notification, you can navigate to System Settings > Privacy & Security > App Management.
| 19:13:38 |
| crushing-smite | 🙄 | 19:13:44 |
| crushing-smite | yeah I did not, what does that even depend on | 19:13:55 |
| samasaur | are you on the latest macOS | 19:15:13 |
| crushing-smite | on Sequoia | 19:15:29 |
| crushing-smite | And yes, I've added vanilla Terminal.app, which I then restart - and it's gone from App-Management-allowed apps | 19:15:58 |
| crushing-smite | thank you apple 👍️ | 19:16:06 |
| samasaur | yeah that's a bug that we were seeing in home-manager | 19:17:29 |
| crushing-smite | I tried once again - it disappears from allow-list exactly the moment darwin-rebuild hits the log line for copying apps 🤦♂️ | 19:17:30 |
| samasaur | I don't remember how to work around it in HM | 19:17:56 |
| samasaur | nix-darwin works fine | 19:18:02 |
| samasaur | I think maybe you need to use sudo? | 19:18:11 |
| crushing-smite | I do | 19:18:51 |
| samasaur | Is your HM configuration used as a module as part of your nix-darwin configuration | 19:19:39 |
| crushing-smite | as a module | 19:19:52 |
| samasaur | bc they sudo isn't passed down to HM | 19:19:58 |
