Failed to install on Mac OS 11.6 (M1 Mac)

[wellhat]

I get this error at the end of installation from my terminal tail output. Homebrew is updated and I installed Docker & XCode 13 + CLI.

jh@Jacobs-MacBook-Air ~ % tail -f /var/log/install.log
	    PKInstallPackageIdentifier = "com.HandySoftware.pkg.HandyHost";
