If you only reported this on any other OS other than Mac. I have no ways of testing this sadly. We can try various builds if you are willing to be a guinea pig over at Irony discord. Otherwise going to need to put a help wanted sign.

lmao! sure i don't mind... If i had to guess, it's a privilege/rights writing issue. I made a mistake in the earlier report; it gets to preparing to run installer or something like that and the closes at 100%, presumably to run the installer but fails to execute said installer. I tried giving it full disk access in security and privacy system preferences but it didn't work either.

Irony downloads the package unpacks it then it attempts to start a process from the update folder which copies over new files. I suspect this is where it fails, due to gatekeeper possibly. To bypass this one would need to sign it, which in such an ecosystem is not really friendly to devs who make free software.

As a temp measure auto updates are disabled on osx from 1.26 going forward.
