Security Update 2019-001 10.13.6

This update came out today and was bundled in the app store with Safari and iTunes updates. I applied it but the Mac would not restart properly afterwards. I waited about 3 hours and then forced it to shut down and restarted. Safari and iTunes had been updated, but the security update didn't.

Might be worth waiting a day or two to see if Apple issues a revision to this.

Probably a retrofit to 10.13.6

I got fed up with the workarounds to keep my laptop running and tried the update again.

If you had this issue, you just need to persist.

First, I downloaded and tried to run the 10.13.6 combo update. This reported that it could not be installed on my startup drive, or on the Security Update 2019-001 10.13.6 drive still lurking on my system after its failure to complete properly. Neither drive was judged "suitable". Even the one that already had 10.13.6 running on it.

I downloaded the Security Update 2019-001 10.13.6 from the Apple site, and tried to install that. It went through it's paces in about 15 seconds, reported itself to be successful, but the App Store still showed this as an update not yet installed.

I tried running Security Update 2019-001 10.13.6 again. This time it took about 10 minutes, but still afterward, the App Store listed it as an available update.

One more time. This time it took about 20 minutes and afterwards, the laptop decided it was all up to date.

I don't know what to make of this. But I can't complain too much about MOTU beta testing on release 0 any more, when the underlying OS is so unpredictable and flaky even after release 6.
