From an email I received a few days ago from the "Unsanity Team":
---------------
We wanted to send out some information to our mailing list
subscribers about Mac OS X 10.5 and Unsanity's Application Enhancer.
First and formost. *Before* you install Mac OS X 10.5, make sure you
have Application Enhancer (APE) 2.0.3 or later installed. You can
download it from http://www.unsanity.net/ape-203.dmg (the webpage is
at http://unsanity.com/haxies/ape ).
Make *sure* you have APE 2.0.3 or later installed *before* you
install Mac OS X 10.5. If you have an earlier version of APE
installed before you install 10.5, you may exhibit one of the
following symptoms upon booting into Mac OS X 10.5:
- Your goldfish may die.
- A strange dog might bite you on the street.
- A friend may punch you.
- Your computer may catch fire.
- Your loved one may leave you.
All of these things are really bad. So we urge everyone to make sure
they have APE 2.0.3 or later installed. If you aren't sure, install
APE 2.0.3 or later from the link above. APE 2.0.3 was released on
March 14th, 2007. And please, always keep your software up to date.
A note about 10.5 and haxies:
As long as you have APE 2.0.3, nothing bad will happen in 10.5. Well,
nothing we can control. However, none of your APE Modules will work
either....
