    • To get around this there are two options. 1. Use the DEP package - https://github.com/munki/munki/releases/download/v5.6.2/munkitools_DEP-5.6.2.4398.pkg. Any of the DEP packages in the releases page should work but might as well grab the latest. I can’t find the link at the moment but I believe this just loads the daemons on the postinstall script.

    • What MDM are you using that abandons you to manage updates via Munki? Why are the packages out of date? Maybe you could use something like this instead to install the latest version of an application immediately after enrollment: https://github.com/Installomator/Installomator
