As a workaround you can follow these steps:

  1. Right click on the installer file (.pkg).
  2. Click Open (The very first option of the right click menu).
  3. Click Open in the presented dialog.
  4. Follow on screen instructions to install.

The workaround worked for xamarin.mac-5.99.0.159.pkg

But I still cannot install xamarin.ios-12.99.0.159.pkg
Error: This package is incompatible with this version of macOs. The package us trying to install content to the system volume...

macOS Catalina 10.15 beta 3 (19A501i)

This seems solved for Xamarin.Mac but not Xamarin.iOS? Any timeline?

@dalexsoto, That one worked without problem. It gave me a prompt to access my download folder though...

I believe it prompts based where the file is located. If you moved it to Desktop I'd expect a prompt there.

That would make sense...

@dalexsoto Can you provide a download link for Xamarin.iOS-12.99.2.40.pkg just like you did for 12.99.2.16 please?

This is working now that we have notarized packages.
