- xpath -> xmllint: xpath's cli interface changed in Big Sur rather than add conditional logic for picking the correct syntax for xpath, I'm changing to xmllint --xpath, which appears to be consistent across versions I've tested... - /plist/dict/key[text()='Writable']/following-sibling::true[1] doesn't do quite what's expected. It was written to try to select a <true /> node paired with the Writable key, but it will also select the *next* <true /> node that appears even if it was paired with another key. - I think there's also a logic bug in the conditionals here. I'm not sure anyone ever actuall saw it, thanks to the xpath bug, though. With the xpath fix, this conditional passes if /nix does not exist, / IS writable, and the version is Catalina+. I think it meant to test for /nix does not exist, / is NOT writable, and the version is Catalina+. I reworked this lightly to make it a little clearer at the code level. |
