Enable SLP in Yosemite 10.10? - osx-yosemite

SLP worked fine in 10.6/7/8/9, but seems disabled by default in 10.10 (enhanced security?).
How do I enable SLP in 10.10? I don't see it in Directory Utility.app. Is there an API to enable SLP? My app has been using the open source SLP package with no problems in 10.6/7/8/9, but it gets no response from servers in 10.10; there are no error returns.
Thanks!

This was fixed during 10.10.2 development, found to be working again in build 14C109. It was a more general problem of some (carbon?) events being dropped.

IntelliJ Idea Ultimate cannot enter debugging mode

When I try to debug it shows this dialog:
Error dialog
And when I clock "fix" It shows this:
Web Browsers dialog
I can't solve this problem, any suggestion? Also I am developing a react native app. But i don't think that's the problem...
I am running Intellij Idea in Elementary OS.
This is expected - debugging is only supported in Chrome and browsers of the Chrome family, as it's clearly stated in Help. So, when you start the debugger, the IDE will try to open Chrome regardless of the browser chosen in run configuration. You need to make sure that Chrome is installed and the correct path to it is specified in Settings | Tools | Web Browsers.
We used to support Firefox Remote Debugging (but without source maps) through the FireFox Remote run configuration, but our solution doesn't work in the latest Firefox versions due to changes in the protocol, and there doesn't seem to be an easy way to fix it. We've made some progress recently, but there are still some blocking issues

Are there any solutions to the fact that Testcafe doesn't work on MacOS images with SIP enabled?

Currently, we use Github Actions to run our Testcafe suites, but the problem is running Safari tests on the macos-latest image, which is 10.15 Catalina, gives the following error:
UnableToAccessScreenRecordingAPIError: The find-window process cannot access the Screen Recording API.
This is because MacOS images don't come with that permission granted by default. Apparently you can't handle this programmatically, and there's a feature called SIP that is turned on in 10.15 Catalina that stops you from getting around it. This is discussed here.
Since we're relying on Github to provide images, they've not been able to provide us with a non-SIP image as discussed here. The workarounds provided there have been of no help.
Any other ideas?
As you already mentioned, TestCafe doesn't capture screenshots and resize them because of SIP enabled on machines with MacOS. However, it is possible to use the remote mode since the platform specific functionality is disabled by default. You can execute these steps:
testcafe remote test.js --hostname ${HOSTNAME} --ports ${PORT1},${PORT2} &
pid=$!
open -a Safari http://${HOSTNAME}:${PORT1}/browser/connect
wait $pid

Gitk Yields Blank Unresponsive Gui on OSX Mojave

I recently upgraded to Mojave and now gitk no longer works. When I try to launch gitk I get a blank, unresponsive Wish gui. I suspect it has to do with Mojave's new security requirements on Apple Events but I didn't receive a prompt to grant permissions and I'm not sure how to grant those permissions. Any ideas how to get gitk working again?
I am running macOS 10.14.4. I have git installed via brew and is version 2.21.0
When I launch gitk I don't get any error messages, just a blank gui that is not responsive.

OneUI app layout, error with pulldown menus

I am using the applayout and OneUI 3.0.2 theme. I have pulldown menus in the banner (application and utility links) but the menu won't show up. Instead I get this JS error:
Uncaught lang.hitch: scope["_onKeyPress"] is null (scope="[Widget extlib.dijit.OneUIv302Menu, extlib_dijit_OneUIv302Menu_2]")
I have a Windows 9.0.1FP1 where these do work. On a 9.0.1FP1 Linux / 9.0.1FP2 Windows it doesn't work. The Linux machine had FP2 installed before I just downgraded it to FP1 (it was a test to see if this is the cause). But I noticed before that even after downgrading some files are still available - so a next test should be installing the machine completely from the scratch.
Double checked it this morning: another 9.0.1FP1 Win machine - everything working fine.
I also checked out that this only a OneUIv3.0.2 problem.
Do you know this issue?
A fix for this issue has been included in the latest XPages Extension Library (901v00_10.20141105-0922) on OpenNTF.
However, another issue was found in the dropdown mneu once it does appear successfully. Unfortunately a fix was not found for this secondary issue in time for the above ExtLib release. It has been logged as SPR# BGLN9PXG53.
