MacGDBp 2.0.2 Released

Today I’m releasing MacGDBp 2.0.2 to address a major issue with the auto-updater and some other minor product bugs.

Somehow when upgrading the Sparkle updater framework when working on MacGDBp 2.0, the auto-update relauncher binary lost its executable bit. This resulted in the auto-update installation hanging indefinitely. Unfortunatley there is no way to automatically recover from this state. Users can run:

chmod +x MacGDBp.app/Contents/Frameworks/Sparkle.framework/Resources/Autoupdate.app/Contents/MacOS/*

… and re-run the in-product updater. Or simply download version 2.0.2 which has resolved the issue.

You can download MacGDBp 2.0.2 from the product page.
