v4.0.0: 🎁 Workaround installd/PackageKit restriction

2 hours ago

Workaround installd/PackageKit restriction (#1029) via a methodology found by @alienator88.

The workaround requires root privileges for get/purchase, install, lucky & update/upgrade.

Root privileges may also be supplied by running sudo mas … on your command line.
