The issue is caused by Gatekeepr. It uses "path randomization" to run applications, until the user moves the app in it's final destination (/Applications for example). This causes the app to be run from `/private/var/..` and Dock treats this as a new app.

To remove the quarantine attribute execute (removes recursively com.apple.quarantine):

`sudo xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Application/SomeApp.app`

Recursion may be needed for apps, that contain helpers.

To list the current attributes for an app execute:

`sudo xattr /Application/SomeApp.app`
