it doesn't work
Authored by: The Gimp on Feb 20, '02 10:18:44AM

I had this problem trying to update to 10.1.2 on a G4/450. My white iBook updated fine but the desktop would not. Somewhere between 10.1 and 10.1.2, I dorked-up the file permissions at the top-level of my drive (made myself owner of the drive). Everything seemed fine except small anomolies, most noticeably not being able to update any software. I wound up having to back-up my personal files and start from scratch. After waxing everything, all upgrades have gone without a hitch.
