Hi all.

When I add Safari to the dock using dockutil -a "/Applications/Safari.app" -s apps it shows the alias icon. No other app does this which I find really odd. Any ideas?

edit - I figure this is something to do with the hard linking that Apple do. I've tried all the locations I can find but still no luck

/System/Library/Templates/Data/Applications/Safari.app
/System/Volumes/Preboot/Cryptexes/App/System/Applications/Safari.app
/System/Volumes/Data/System/Library/Templates/Data/Applications/Safari.app
/System/Volumes/Data/Applications/Safari.app

Cheers,
Shannon

This is the path:
"/System/Cryptexes/App/System/Applications/Safari.app"

Odd, I thought I tried that one.

Working now. Cheers

Explicitly specify dev machines' dock contents

Previously, this assumed I wanted random new Apple-bundled apps left in
my dock… but I don't. So build the dock from the ground up.

There's also [a bug in dockutil that requires Safari's full path to be
specified](kcrawford/dockutil#148).
