Description

On MacOS AutoUpdater updates older version to incompatible version.

Current behavior

Running older version on older OS. Autoupdate quietly replaces working app with incompatible app.


Expected Behavior

No app should change itself without the sys admin's permission.

Possible Solution

Turn that off - or have it do a check

Steps to reproduce

Older Mac OS. Older Jitsi app.

Environment details

MBP, OSX10.14

Alas it's no longer possible to fix this.

This would've been needed before an incompatible release was made.

My recommendation here is for you to build it from source and disable auto-updates.
