It updated texlive.infra. I then quit TLU, restarted it, and looked for updates again. It told me there were no updates available, which does not seem right. Here is the output:

Howdy,

I'll report this problem to the maintainer of TLU. Try running

sudo tlmgr update --all

(and give your admin password) in Terminal. That should get you going.

Good Luck,
