Since the issue indicates

feedback related to a recent installation of a preview build would be helpful too if that it is easier for you to check.

I did not get the error described above - the extensions installed correctly (SlicerMorph, which includes a few extensions, etc).

I did get a crash on exit, however - stack trace below. Re-opening Slicer, trying an extension, and then exiting Slicer dit not repeat the crash.

This is on macOS Monterey 12.1, MacBook Pro 16" (2019).

Thanks for the feedback that is very helpful. Thanks for taking the time 🙏

The crash is unfortunate, I would be curious is this is systematic after installing extension.

I also got the crash on exit after running the extension manager. Install worked for Segmentation Extra Effects, so probably not extension-specific. Oddly it’s a slightly different stack trace.

It turns out, that I had an outdated OpenSSL version installed which is the reason why I couldn’t install any extensions.
