Always yellow indicator on Munki tools update #694

Closed opus-nbonenberger closed 1 year ago

opus-nbonenberger commented 1 year ago

The "Installation" Pane in AutoPkgr always displays a yellow indicator and a information about an update being available, even if the newest version of Munki tools was installed directly over AutoPkgr. A reboot of the machine does not change that.

Running AutoPkgr 1.6 on macOS 12.6

I can confirm I am having this issue in my environment as well.

Manually downloading and installing Munki Tools and quitting and reopening Autopkgr doesn't resolve the issue.

This is a known issue when the version of makecatalogs installed is less than the Munki "metapackage" version. Current Munki versions are listed on the v6.0 release notes:

Package versioning metapackage version: 6.0.0.4520 munki core tools version: 6.0.0.4501 LaunchAgents/LaunchDaemons version: 3.0.3265 Apps package version: 6.0.0.4520 Python package version: 3.9.13.4518

Best course of action is to ignore the yellow indicator for now.

@homebysix Hi, yes I know this is a known issue as per your explanation in this issue. (And others.)

However this does regularly happen with AutoPkgr and Munki. Is there no way you can build in a more effective/different version check mechanism specifically for checking the Munki Tools? Perhaps by checking both the makecatalogs and metapackage versions separately even if your user interface does not display this. Or only checking the metapackage version and not the makecatalogs version.
