I did a double take yesterday when Software Update pulled up Security Update 2007-009 for me to install on my desktop Mac in the house.
Huh? Didn’t I do this already last week? But I figured, doodling around regularly with different Macs at home and in the office, I must’ve forgotten to update this particular one. Not likely, but possible given the current state of my memory. So ran it, and it installed.
But still, it bugged me so I checked around.
Apparently, I wasn’t paying attention again. It was Security Update 2007-009, but to be more precise, it was Security Update 2007-009 Version 1.1. Huh?
It looks like the first one, but Apple still hasn’t said why it was compelled to release this second version one week after it released the first.
V1.1 has new versions of Core Foundation, CUPS, Flash Player Plug-in, Launch Services, perl, python, Quick Look, ruby, Safari, Samba, Shockwave Plug-in and Spin Tracer. But if it was significantly different, why not just call it Security Update 2007-010? What was wrong with 009?
I started looking around for entries in the Support pages of Apple for info on the first release of the update, and all I got was a slew of Page Not Founds. Seems they took everything about V1.0 down. Hmm. My spidey-sense is tingling vaguely.
Could be nothing of course, but let’s wait for more news to surface.
