[QUOTE="andersbo, post: 1027561, member: 147198"] Hey! I've been using the command line for a while. Do any of you know how to get the softwareupdate utility (/usr/sbin/softwareupdate) to display "update details" like on the "graphical" version? the "softwareupdate -l" only displays something like "Software Update found the following new or updated software: * AirPortUtility-5.5.1 AirPort Base Station Update 2010-001 (5.5.1), 11840K [recommended] * iPhoto_812-8.1.2 iPhoto Update (8.1.2), 13259K [recommended] * iTunesX-9.1 iTunes (9.1), 99660K [recommended]" How can I get the terminal version to print the "details" text about what's new? Thanks in advance :) [/QUOTE]
