First note that I don't see Isabelle/ffb1783dd7e0 in the public repository,
but I the detailed version is probably irrelevant. I am using current
Isabelle/15c6f253b9f3 for testing.

My Mojave installation is already at 10.14.6, and Catalina at 10.15.2. Both
work fine for me, using the command-line tool or the Isabelle.app (e.g. from
https://isabelle.sketis.net/devel/release_snapshot).

first attempt, should show up in various dialogs. E.g. see "General" (as in

Access" or "Files and Folders" for the Terminal app.
