The package installassistant.pkg fails to meet gatekeeper policy

[Sibosteele]

Hi All

When trying to install Big Sur Beta I get "the package installassistant.pkg fails to meet gatekeeper policy".

I am on a brand new MacBook Air 2020 running Catalina 10.15.6

I have under Security & Privacy allow apps downloaded from anywhere but otherwise I don't know what to try now.

Help would be appreciated. I installed it on a MacBook with no problem.

Thanks

Simon

Hi Simon, wondering if you were able to figure out a solution for this. I'm running into the same issue with my 2019 MacBook Air. Thanks!
