When I select "install apple silicon", nothing happens there, it instead installs universal

Open gsbernstein opened this issue 2 months ago • 3 comments

Describe the bug Selecting "install apple silicon" instead installs the "universal" version (or at least appears to)

To Reproduce

  1. select a row for an apple silicon version
  2. select "install apple silicon"

Expected behavior State for that apple silicon entry should change to installing, button should change to "cancel"

Actual behavior Nothing happens on the apple silicon entry, instead the state changes to installing on the universal version above. When installation is complete, it only shows that the universal version is installed. After refreshing, it shows that both versions are installed.

Reproducibility: 100%

It actually installs the correct variant of Xcode. It's just a visual bug, quite annoying.

Same here, I clicked "Install Apple Silicon" but went ahead and started installing universal:
