This is an interesting discussion that seems to be
fracturing in a lot of tangents which are also
interesting. Perhaps some "Subject" modification might
clarify the tangents.
Perhaps we should have asked the original author what
was intended.

As I understand it, the original author was only
interested in system 9.2 or not? Was he asking if the
updates would screw it up? By saying "again??" did he
mean that there was a previous problem discussed not
tied into the Subject? Or, since it seems that he is
normally running OSX, is he asking how this impacts
9.2? Or, is he asking what all these updates do (which
we would all like to know. So we need to go to the
Apple site and hope that we understand all the
details, rather than having a brief capture of who
"needs" it. Which was the question, wasn't it?
Then the list of individual updates... the original
author recognizes Airport Software as a concern. Does
he use Applescript, or does he need Applescript for
some hidden, mysterious reason? And what the heck is
"Authoring Support"? "CarbonLib"? "iBook Firmware"
Well, duh? ...sorry, but we all need realize that this
is not just an experienced Mac-user or tech.dialogue.
I love the Pro-opinions and the intro-to-mac dialogue.
I do see a problem with communication.
respectfully',
