Fatal error

[makabde]

Hi,
On a fresh Mojave install, I am getting the following error.
Mackup was installed using Homebrew.

Traceback (most recent call last):

yep.

[TheJayWright]

Likewise.

The 2 errors seem to be unrelated. I suggest opening different issue.

@makabde what's your $HOME? Is there unicode in it?
@lacymorrow Looks like mackup tries to move some credentials files but it can't, due to permission errors.
