If that's true, then I'm really stuck. I moved from admin-installed
agents in /Library/LaunchAgents to per-user agents in
~/Library/LaunchAgents because the new launchctl seems incapable of
addressing them. (See the thread "Yosemite not starting a system launch
agent" circa July 2015).<br class="">

So now you're telling me that per-user Background agents aren't
supported either? :head desk:<br class=""></div></div></blockquote><br class=""></div><div>I'm not sure what you mean by "either". Agents are per-user, no matter where they come from. launchd cannot reliably support loading background agents from a user's home directory because the home directory might not be available until a GUI login has happened.</div><div>-damien</div><div><br class=""></div></body></html>
