We'll have to wait for an update to tlmgr and then, most likely, will have to force the update to the fixed tlmgr via the Actions->Reinstall TeX Live Manager menu command if the bad version was installed. Wait for more information about an update to tlmgr.

You could also use TexLive Utility and select Actions -> Reinstall TeX Live Manager
afterwards, you will be able to update as usually.
I just got the new version from German servers so it should be readily available.
