Did anyone else notice that Apple appears to have pulled the Panther

Yeah, I think it's because of the WO startup item issue.
From a mail posted on Omni's WO admin list:
Hello All,
A quick peek in the ApplicationsServerUpdate.pkg shows where the
problem is.
Inside the package is a script called: WODeployment.post_script
This script is the one causing all the problems. As you can see from
the script that it deletes the /System/Library/StartupItems directory
all together
--SNIP--
...
startupdir="${NEXT_ROOT}System/Library/StartupItems/WebObjects"
...
if [ -d "${startupdir}" ]; then
# Remove existing startup directory
echo Removing existing $startupdir
/bin/rm -rf "${startupdir}"
fi
--SNIP--
It then goes about trying to create a new directory and startup files.
--SNIP--
# Create the wotaskd startup script
echo Creating $startupdir
/bin/mkdir "${startupdir}"
cp -f "$1/Contents/Resources/WebObjects" "${startupscript}"
chmod a+x "${startupscript}"
# Create the WebObjects startup plist
echo Creating $startupplist
cp -f "$1/Contents/Resources/StartupParameters.plist" "${startupplist}"
echo "WebObjects 5.2.2 Installer: Deployment Post Install script
completed:" `date`
--SNIP--
The problem is that the files that it needs to copy into the new
StartupItems/WebObjects folder do not exist in the package. A quick
look at the install log file confirms this fact:
--SNIP--

--SNIP--
I contacted Apple to let them know about the problem and they said
that they would get back with me sometime tomorrow. I hope you all
have a good back from which to pull the files from. Otherwise good
luck!!
