Describe the bug

LiveContainer is not signed with a development certificate so LiveContainer won't work at all. Please sign LiveContainer with a development certificate.
I get this issue when I sign live container with a paid development certificate.

I want to know why Live Container can not be used with a cert that you buy from apple.
I understand that the main use for live containers is to bypass the 3-app-limit on free certificates, or to run apps in JIT mod. But the reason why I want to use paid certificates is that I want to use live container for it's containerization feature, and I already have a paid certificate, and I don’t want to deal with resigning it every time.

Instructions to reproduce

1- download latest version of live containers
2- sign it with a paid development certificate.

What version of LiveContainer and iOS are you using?

3.6.1

Other info

Your certificate must have get-task-allow entitlement (aka capable of enabling JIT, regardless if you set up JIT-less mode) otherwise you get the error as the linked issue.
