#INSTALLPKG ALLOWUNTRUSTED UPDATE#
I contributed this tip to Apple Discussions in the HT5275 Safari 6 download thread and am reposting here as well since I repeatedly keep going back to get the command I authored! (No I don’t run Apple Software Update server, I have my own distribution methods for work that don’t involve merging software update catalogs and other ridiculous things OS X Server requires you to do if you dare run various OS X versions and don’t run the latest server).

But it’s a real pain when you have børked install or install a Developer preview (which sometimes will not register in Software Updates and need to get up to the latest release.) So when Safari 6 came out, Apple did away with download links from their Support site. Running find from inside the apps keeps the base paths the same and allows for easy comparison with diff or XCode’s FileMerge (a favorite).įind. I used find to run a md5 on all the files in each installer and send the output to two files. The application certs were all VALID, my script said so, what gives? Doing a bit of sleuthing revealed InstallESD.dmg to be different between the two installers.
Speaking of apps: the Install macOS Mojave.app from the App Store was giving me the “damaged” message on Thursday around 1PM CST… For mand I use pkgutil’s assesment for package files but for apps all we have is the the “not after” date. Their tool can better help you assess what a package will do when it’s expiration occurs. mand is useful for when vendors have forgotten to issue new packages and you need a working package.Ĭert validation caveat: some packages can expire yet remain valid! These are signed with “trusted time stamps” and Suspicious Package explains this quite well. Repacking is basically expanding the pacakge then flattening it again. You either have to get a new resigned package or repack it. It will suggest you use the -allowUntrusted flag, however this is not an option with Jamf Pro. macOS will throw an error if you try and install a pkg with an expired cert via the installer command line tool.
#INSTALLPKG ALLOWUNTRUSTED PRO#
The need to find expired packages is critical if you use Jamf Pro to deploy your packages. Not much of a looker at the command line but comes together nicely in Quick Look
The extension matters, BBEdit will set the executable bit and you won’t have to mess with cleaning off the flag as you would if you downloaded it. I’d advise just copy pasting the raw script into a new BBEdit document and saving it as “ mand“. Could this have been something my script could have helped head off? No but it might have made examining the packages Thursday afternoon a bit easier. What can I really add?” So, I let it slide, then Thurday came and there was a hiccup: Apple hadn’t refreshed all their packages! Oh noes. I thought: “Do I really have anything to contribute? Folks are already aware of this. So I had a Draft about this last week but an usure feeling.
