React-native-debugger: Version 0.10.0 does not update to newer version

[flashman2]

Previously, update of React Native Debugger worked just fine! But currently I have 0.10.0 and when I press "Check for updates" I see a message "A newer version is available 0.10.1"
When I press "Download" button nothing happens and new version is not installed. I guess, there is a problem with update functionality in 0.10.0

@flashman2 try "brew cask reinstall react-native-debugger"

@FrankyHo Thanks that fixed it for me!
Got a little unnerved when I saw the evil popup come again... but this time I got another one after a few seconds prompting to restart. Pffew! 😅

I ended up with switch to version 0.9.14 as it is more stable in work.

I can confirm that me and several teammates have this same issue. brew cask reinstall react-native-debugger seems to have fixed it 👍

The auto update issue was fixed by v0.10.2 with https://github.com/jhen0409/react-native-debugger/commit/d6a46058ab1d780ee7e207fd4be61f0ecb0ca8b5. Please update it manually.
