Hi Matt,
I'm having an issue with reinstalling Larch. I'm using macOS Catalina 10.15.7. I had Larch previously installed and it was working well, but found I was no longer able to open up XAS Viewer. The application would start and then quit.
So, I removed Larch from my system and tried to reinstall it. I first used the mac installer but would get an error that the "Installation failed. The installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail."
I then tried the installation using the script in terminal. This appeared successful, but no desktop shortcut was created. I tried to create a desktop shortcut using larch -m but get the following error:
