Crossover update from 11.3.1 to 12.0.0 fails due to permissions

from 11.3.1 and "check for updates"....

It find 12.0.0 and downloads, when relaunching it fails with "couldn´t move crossover....... to trashcan"

Tried on several computers. Console say this:

Seems to me there is a permission issue inside the crossover app contents folder and _codesignature...

Thanks
