Mac OS X 10.9 "Mavericks" and SAV for Mac

Apple released Mac OS X 10.9 "Mavericks" today, free for everyone with Snow Leopard or newer.

We've been testing our product with this release for many months now and had made numerous changes in version 9.0.3 (the version published about a month ago). The significant changes required were to change how we were building, codesigning, and installing our kernel extensions. You will now find two copies of our kext: one in /System/Library/Extensions and another in /Library/Extensions. This follows Apple's recommendation to support people transitioning from 10.8 to 10.9.

The kexts in /System/Library/Extensions are present for compatiblity with versions of Mac OS X prior to 10.9. Starting in "Mavericks" the location is /Library/Extensions. We are codesigning the kexts in /Library/Extensions to conform to Apple's security requirements.

If you have issues, please report them in this thread.

  • My Powerbook keeps restarting unexpectedly, allegedly because of Sophos. It did it 4 times in a row today. A review of the system state on each occasion shows com.sophos.kext.sav and com.sophos.nke.swi at the top of  the list of loaded kexts. Apple suggests trashing Sophos (I have 9.0.11)  but I'd rather fix it than trash it. What can be done?
