pgcli 4.1.0 with Python 3.13.0: Bouncing icon in the macOS Dock

[mario-grgic]

Description

Running pgcli on macOS with Python 3.13.0 runs a bouncing icon in the Dock for the entire duration of the session (until you exit pgcli). It seems the import setproctitle in main.py is causing this first.

Your environment

I am using macOS 15.1 (24B83), with Python 3.13.0 (installer from python.org) and pgcli 4.1.0

I'm getting this too after the upgrade to Sequoia.

Looks like there are people reporting it on the Apple Dev Forums too as a generic issue with any Python process - although they aren't getting much help there https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/764130

[mario-grgic]

I posted a ticket against setproctitle project here: dvarrazzo/py-setproctitle#143 (comment)

which has a PR to fix it (I tested it and it works).

The fix is essentially programatically setting Info.plist flags. Unfortunately, changing Info.plist is not a possibility for python itself, due to signature checks.
