I'm not sure what solution you are seeking here. DetectX will record each and every time a key file is added or removed to/from selected locations, which includes all LaunchAgents, LaunchDaemons, Applications and a few other places where malware is often installed. When you see such a notice, if it's something you recall having allowed, then no further action is required. If it's a file that you cannot associated with an action on your part, then check the latest DetectX scan to see if that file or files are detected as malware. If not, then you should spend some time as you have here determining where it came from.
At this point, you have solved the mystery and should simply go back to work and forget about it. DetectX did it's job and so have you. -Al- On Nov 3, 2019, at 02:19, Michael Newman via macports-users <macports-users@lists.macports.org <mailto:macports-users@lists.macports.org>> wrote: > > Thank you. > > Locate did not find this plist on the boot volume.
