TweetDeck install and 3003 error

Update 11/23: Trying again with the 0.31.3 TweetDeck release, it installs fine. Shrug...

I'm trying to install TweekDeck on my Mac and I keep getting a 3003 error.

I turned on logging of the application install:

% touch ~/.airappinstall.log

And the full log follows.

% cat .airappinstall.log

The obvious line is the exception about "Directory can't be written to" - but what directory? /Applications? Well, it is actually writing /Applications/Tweekdeck.app but that applications isn't executable:


% open /Applications/TweetDeck.app/
LSOpenFromURLSpec() failed with error -10661 for the file /Applications/TweetDeck.app.
Anyone have any suggestions?
