Old flet client app versions do not launch on Mac

See original GitHub issue

Have repeatedly seen the following behavior on Mac:

I get this error when trying to launch a flet app in “local app mode”:

The application cannot be opened for an unexpected reason, error=Error Domain=RBSRequestErrorDomain Code=5 "Launch failed." UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=Launch failed., NSUnderlyingError=0x60000374d650 {Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=111 "Unknown error: 111" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Launchd job spawn failed}}}
Web mode works normally.
When I check flet version, I see that there is a new version available.
After upgrading to latest version, app launches normally.

While this is in a way great, as it keeps me motivated to quickly upgrade to the latest version, it is not good for stable application use.

Speculation: Mac only considers the latest flet Flutter client app valid.

Would be great if anyone else using a Mac could verify this behavior.

Thanks for the update!

I don’t know if it’s going to be permanent, but the solution would be moving Flet executables out of $TMPDIR, say to $HOME and see how it goes. I feel like it should fix the issue.

It’s related problem I guess though errors are always different and cryptic in all cases.
