Qt installation on mac OSX gives error Cannot open script file

When I run the Qt5 installer on Mac I get
Cannot open script file at
/var/folders/yr/459cs03n63g185cf1bp_3xvc0000gn/T/remoterepo-6sdgWK/qt.596.qtdatavis3d.android_armv7/installscript.qs:
No such file or directory
Why it cannot open this installscript.qs file?
I'm running macos Sierra
So I want to share my solution: just restart the installer.
Another way to fix most Qt installer problems is to open https://download.qt.io/ and download the complete .dmg installer (from this folder https://download.qt.io/official_releases/qt/)
I had this problem I think because I kept the installation idle for long time trying to solve another problem: the installer couldn't find XCode even if I had it already installed, like in this question
Attempt to install Qt on OS X gives 'You need to install XCode 5.0.0', but this version is so old it's not available

Pycharm 4.5 CE crashes on launch on OS X 10.8.5

I upgraded from Pycharm 4.0 (which worked fine) to 4.5 community edition on Mac OS 10.8.5.
It crashes on launch after bouncing a bit in the dock.
The log files, console, all show nothing.
I'm running java 1.6.0_65, and have Python 2.7, Jython, PyPy via Macports.
Any ideas?
Make sure you've installed Apple's Java for OS X 2014-001 (at least).
Try to delete ~/Library/Java/Extensions, see the issue IDEA-137147.
Similar to the answer for IntelliJ IDEA, if you can't delete ~/Library/Java/Extensions, i.e., because you need it's contents (likely JAI jars) as part of other applications, you can create a file, pycharm.vmoptions in ~/Library/Preferences/PyCharm40 with contents:
-Djava.ext.dirs=/System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home/lib/ext
to override OSX Java 6's default behavior of checking the user's ~/Library/Java/Extensions directory in addition to the system's extensions on application start up; but only for PyCharm.

Unknown error when creating packages with pkgbuild

I followed several tutorials-which all appeared to say the same thing-on how to create deployable flat-packages (.pkg) using the OS X system provided pkgbuild tool. The packages was always generated just fine. They did, however, not want to be installed.
Running the graphical Apple Installer or the command line interface installer aborted the installation early on giving an generic “Unknown error” after prompting for higher permissions.
Hours later after closer investigation I discovered that I could not install other packages either. Not even updates and new installations from the OS X App Store. Why could I not install my own nor any other packages? What was going on?
The installer daemon service itself is unresponsive. Force quit the installed program from from the Activity Monitor, or from the command line with sudo killall installd.

installation file corrupted from install4j

install4j's multiplatform installer has been working great for years. Now out of the blue we are getting an error popup dialog that The installation file is corrupted. If it is a download please try again. It has installed about 19MB of 164MB and the last file it didn't write was a small jar that has been in the build for some time now.
We get this error when running the full installer right after it is built as a test. We are also building several 'companion' applications with all the same files just different start up options and its installer run fine.
We are using install4j in batch mode:
install4j version: 5.0.8 (build 5311)
Thanks.
Are you running it on the latest Mac OS? If so then this is because of the latest Gatekeeper "feature" of Apple and you need to sign your code: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5290
