Installing a DMG with an embedded license agreement can stall at hdiutil's Agree Y/N? prompt, even with -quiet. This was reproduced with AutoMounter: entering Y allowed the mount to finish.

Supply a single Y\n directly to the DMG attach subprocess so these installs proceed unattended. The shared extraction helper covers both brew-cask and macos-app, including nested DMGs, as well as Aqua DMG downloads. Images without a license prompt continue to extract normally.

Validation:

  • Added regression tests for images with and without a license prompt, including copying app contents, preserving symlinks, and detaching/cleaning up the temporary mount directory. The license test failed before the fix and passed afterward.
  • cargo test --all-features file::tests -- --nocapture: 187 tests passed.
  • cargo clippy --workspace --all-features --all-targets -- -D warnings passed.
  • Formatting and whitespace checks passed; contributor ran mise run lint-fix before committing.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • DMG installations now handle license prompts without relying on an interactive pager, improving reliability for quiet or unattended installs.
    • License prompts are answered directly even when a different pager is configured in the environment.
  • Tests

    • Added validation that licensed DMG handling uses the expected non-interactive pager configuration.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

un_dmg now sets PAGER=cat when it answers hdiutil attach license prompts. Unix tests verify that this setting overrides an existing PAGER value.

un_dmg sets PAGER to cat before sending Y to hdiutil attach. The Unix fake hdiutil command fails unless it receives this value, and the test environment starts with PAGER=less.
