Unable to load Preferences LC 9.6.9rc3 and Levure 9.0.5

[Marty Knapp]

I use Levure to build apps too and discovered this issue when my standalones try to run natively on the Apple “M” chips. I’m guessing that LC 9.6.9rc3 (haven’t tried it yet) defaults to running natively rather than under Rosetta. For some reason when running natively it apparently thinks that something in the “Preferences.bundle" is a (not native) external so won’t/can’t load it.

So I am also needing a solution to this but no luck so far.

I’m tracing through the Levure script now and can see in fact the Preference stack is not being loaded. I’ve confirmed Preferences.bundle is at the location referenced in the script.
