Other Is 15.7 supported with OCLP

[shloimy95]

MacOS Sequoia 15.7 was released a couple of days ago but the update doesn't show up in system settings on any of my OCLP patched Macs. I see on GitHub a new MetallibSupportPkg has not bean released since 15.6. Also tonight 15.6.1 appeared in system settings on all my patched Macs. Is OCLP blocking 15.7 due to an issue?

N.B. Using the option to create USB install OCLP does offer 15.7 even without checking show older/beta versions.

From a bit of further Googleing it seems 15.7 is a release candidate, not a stable release. Interesting that OCLP offers it as the default Sequoia to download without checking show older/beta versions. It also shows it was released 2 days ago.

So it does install but you are met with an error when trying to apply to post install root patch because there is no 15.7 kdk.

And without the patch the OS could not talk to the T1/T2 security chip, which meant my Touch ID and iMessage and whatnot couldn't work.

So I have found a work around

What I did was download the 15.5 KDK via the apple dev website,

copied it to this location: /Library/Developer/KDKs/KDK_15.5_24F81.kdk/

renamed the file to "KDK_15.7_24G214.kdk"

went back into OCLP and clicked run post install root patch, rebooted and all functionality was restored.

Everything appears to be working flawlessly
