I'm not sure if the library errors are being caused by continuing to use 10.12 (are the 4.0 clients for OSX expecting libraries from 10.14?), or if it is because I installed the .dmg in ~/Downloads/Xpra-Python3-x86_64-4.0-r25729
(so I can have multiple versions installed... I then cd into the MacOS directory of each install and manually run ./Xpra attach
- which used to work)... or if there is a genuine issue with the libraries.
Obviously (mostly), I downloaded the Xpra-Python3-x86_64-4.0-r25729.dmg build from your beta repo.
I then created a directory in the Downloads folder to drag the dmg into, then dragged the app from the installer into the newly made folder, rather than the applications folder icon in the installer.
Trying to then connect to a server, I get this traceback client-side.

A quick check shows that I definitely don't have a 'macos' directory in my /Users/ directory.

I would try moving to the /Applications directory to try again, but the /Users/macos/ directory would still not exist (let me know if you'd like me to try though, maybe the installer just got confused by my trick?).
Ah. That's because the 4.0 builds are supposed to require 10.14 or later IIRC, but I forgot to bump the LSMinimumSystemVersion, which would have given you a nice warning message instead of failing with symbol errors.
The question now is, do I:
I think I will attempt (2) after making a backup. This is going to take time..
Rebuilt everything with min_sdk=10.12
, and updated the manifest so we require 10.12: r25762.
There's a new build (just without the manifest change) in the beta area.
Tested OK on a 10.12.x VM.
BTW, there are 4.0 builds in the beta area which I have built using the "old" 10.11.x VM which is normally used for making 3.0.x LTS builds. Those also work. (ie: the r25756 builds does work IIRC)
Note to self: I shouldn't do that, as it could be confusing if one version exhibits a problem and another doesn't - this is not necessarily a code change - could just be a library change / build env bug.
Handy for those, like me, that are paranoid about Mac changing library structures... looks like Xpra-Python3-x86_64-4.0-r25761.dmg does indeed work with a 4.0-r25719 Fedora 30 server.
I also double checked, works against the 3.0.7-r25627 server I get from the stable repo also.
So, guess I'll close this and say thanks.
Forgot to bump the version requirements for the PKG: r25801.
The new builds were crashing in the opengl probing code (looked like memory corruption), so I had to revert r25801 and r25762: r25853.
I even tried rebuilding everything, from scratch. Twice.
v4 will require 10.14 or later. Sorry. At least now the OS will give a better warning message rather than an error.
I refused to let this go because I want the new build VM (#2505) to be reliable, and rebuilding everything from scratch does reproduce the bug. Almost a full day later, the problem comes from r25775 (gtk bumped from 3.24.10 to 3.24.14) now reverted in r25870. So in theory, we could still allow 10.12+ and make it work..

Done in r25871.
The latest beta builds require 10.12 or later.
