OS: macOS Monterey Version 12.7.3

When I try to install lulu@2.6.2 I get following error Error: lulu: uninstall script /Applications/LuLu.app/Contents/Resources/LuLu Uninstaller.app/Contents/MacOS/LuLu Uninstaller does not exist. :

I was able to use previous versions. How can I fix this error?

Yeah, this doesn't look normal. It removes and then looks for what it removed. I faced the same issue. So my guess is it just wiped out all the settings I had. Interesting.

Does it have something to do with @homebrew by any chance?

objective-see commented 7 months ago

Yes - this is an issue with the cask (that was not written by me). That uninstaller is for v1.* (only) ...and yes, it will, as its name implies fully uninstall LuLu.

As LuLu uses a network extension (which is off an running as a separate process), you can't just kill/delete the app :\ I've added a commandline interface, that exports -install -upgrade & -uninstall ....so that LuLu will handle this all for your nicely and cleanly ...and for example, on an upgrade, won't delete your settings/rules.

...but seems like homebrew can't actually run stuff? soooo 🤷🏻‍♂️

amarendra commented 7 months ago

Yeah. Seems this is the problem https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/issues/166180 which was linked from https://github.com/objective-see/LuLu/issues/581.

Time to remove lulu and some other critical apps (like lulu, @borgbase/vorta) from brew/cask and install/upgrade them independently.

@amarendra How can we remove LuLu from brew/cask?
