UTC 6.1.1 appears to not install certain plugins

Thanks to digitalcraftsman (on MacAdmins slack) for helping track down the issue of repeating installs in Munki caused by the installcheck_script finding out of date plugins after the UTC install. Workaround is to just rename that key in the pkginfo and instead rely on the installs key for Munki. Either need to make an exception in the script or have UTC fix their crap.

Sorry, I don't understand what to do for the workaround "Workaround is to just rename that key in the pkginfo and instead rely on the installs key for Munki."
Could you explain in more detail please? Thanks in advance.

Hi @pexner. In the resulting pkginfo file that autopkg generates there is an installcheck_script key. Rename that to, say, _installcheck_script (or just delete the key entirely). That should disable the script and thus stop the looping.
