Research direction

Reproduce the issue with Xcode 26.5 and Xcode 27 beta installed, then inspect the logic that determines installed-state icons when the Xcode list is collapsed. Done means both versions show colored icons in the collapsed list while preserving the current behavior when expanded.

Description

bug

Describe the bug

I have both Xcode 26.5 and Xcode 27 beta installed. Xcodes shows 27 beta as not installed, when the categories are collapsed.

To Reproduce

  1. Install Xcode 26.5 and Xcode 27 beta.
  2. Look at the list of Xcodes, with everything collapsed.
  3. See that Xcode 27 icon is not colored, but 26 is.

Expected behavior

I would expect both Xcode 27 and Xcode 26 icons to be colored in, since I have both installed.
