Has no one noticed ? 10.5.2 is out...
All installed and working fine on my iMac and my Macbook Pro. No issues so far.
Just be aware of the changes made to Software Update in Leopard. It has been been in previous versions of MAc OS X that you could choose "Install and keep package" in the Update menu, and a copy of the installer would be kept in /Library/Packages. This is not true in Leopard. Instead, a copy is placed either in ~/Downloads (in the case of updates not requiring a re-boot) or in /Library/Updates. This latter location would be OK, except that the packages are removed upon restart! This is a bug which is being actively discussed in the Apple Forums, but it still hasn't been fixed.
I was caught out on each download with this, so I have managed to download over 700 Mb of updates in less than 12 hours, and I STILL don't have copies of what I've downloaded.
The only solution seems to be to choose the Update > Download only option and run the installers individually, which is a pain when there are updates like Quicktime which require separate reboots.
Looks like I'm going to have to download Mac OS X 10.5.2 yet again, just to have a copy in case things go bad...
