I'm teaching a college class, and IT has installed Xcode on the image for the iMacs in the classroom/lab. In theory we should be good to go.
However, when running a project or playground, there are multiple dialog boxes that pop up asking the students for admin passwords. Here is a screenshot of one of the dialogs from a student:
An administrator was present during the first class to enter these for students, and he and I had tested that future logins on the same machine by a different user should no longer prompt the request for this information. However, students are continuing to report that they are running into these dialogs intermittently. I need to resolve this problem to ensure students can complete their coursework.
Is there a way to install Xcode on an image such that it doesn't perpetually ask users for an admin password?

You can add users you would like to have access to debugging to the
_developergroup.Replace ‘adminusername’ with the username of a sudoer you have the password to and ‘studentusername’ with the username of an account to add to the group.
