First, I would like to apologise for my late reply. I am sorry to say
that I did not have the time to turn to the 2022 update earlier, but now
it's done:

> Time used for installing the packages: 3:57:26

That's over a WiFi connection over DSL16000. Three packages failed to
download --- they were retrieved and installed at the end of the script.

I am happy to say that I cannot confirm the issue you mentioned in
<https://tug.org/mactex/mactex-unix-download.html> with
<https://tug.org/mactex/TeXDist-2022.pkg> with High Sierra. The package
downloaded, opened and ran alright on macOS 10.13.6. I did not need to
run <https://tug.org/mactex/postinstall2022.sh>.

Everything seems to work alright. I can compile my latest LaTeX
documents from Aquamacs. TeX Live Utility also works fine.

Again, thanks for everyone involved in TL2022 and its darwinlegacy part!

Best regards,
Jürgen.
