Dockutil error about mac-dev-playbook HOT 6 CLOSED

Some context: as newer MacOS don't have python, docutilwas rewritten in swift. Not sure how it is installed in this playbook, it should be possible to just add it as a home-brew install. However, there are issues with that, see eg

• Homebrew/homebrew-core#97394
• kcrawford/dockutil#127

As a temporary workaround adding hpedrorodrigues/tools/dockutilto the home-brew cask section works.

@will62185 as by now there is mess with all that, you can use my roles

There are several issues right now,

1. in Ansible itself - ansible-collections/community.general#4708 (comment),
2. in Homebrew with merging dockutil - Homebrew/homebrew-core#97394
3. in dockutil - kcrawford/dockutil#127
4. and in geerlingguy roles and collections, which depends on all that, mentioned in 1. and 2.

I've invested time to fix all that.

My roles:

• https://github.com/wayofdev/ansible-role-homebrew
• https://github.com/wayofdev/ansible-role-dock
• https://github.com/lotyp/homebrew-formulae

Third link can be replaced with hpedrorodrigues/tools/dockutil as @einSelbst mentioned

@geerlingguy I'm really sorry, as this looks like we are using your repo issues section for adverts for our code 😀

Hi @einSelbst @lotyp, I wanted to report back that the workaround for docktuil worked great. Thank you both.

from mac-dev-playbook.

Thanks for the feedback @geerlingguy . However, reading through #42 it doesnt seem to be related. This bug report is regarding the tool called -dockutil-, which places an app in the dock, but #42 is about dotfiles.

Thanks @einSelbst i'll give the workaround a try.

Merging this discussion into #42, which is the original report.
