Now that
OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2 Supplemental Update 2.0 is released that supposedly fixes at least some of the issues with the pulled 10.8.2 special Update, some of us may wish they had it installed while it was there.
Actually it
is still available from Apple's direct download link. However, some words of advice:
Pro
- If you immediately afterwards install the two supplemental Updates, you are in the same boat with those who installed 10.8.2 before it was pulled - no better, but also no worse.
- You can install iPhoto 9.4.2, Aperture 3.4.2 and RAW 4.01 right now.
Con
- This is unsupported! Apple must have had good reasons to pull that Update.
- Although there is a fix for the keychain issue, you cannot be certain that there aren't any other unfixed problems with this 10.8.2 build.
- It might only be due to Thanksgiving that the re-release of this update lags behind, who knows. But the Supplemental Update 2.0 might also be a quick and dirty patch as an emergency measure for those who already installed the pulled Update, with a more solid solution to follow later.
So, if you are desperate and/or impatient enough, you know the risk involved and are willing to take it, here is the direct Link to the infamous
