Palm releases 4.2.1revD Installer

Last month, we pointed out an article at Macintouch that accused the Palm 4.2.1c installer of altering permissions it had no business touching. Yesterday, Palm released 4.2.1revD of this installer, which, according to Palm, offers "a more elegant fix" for the problem. Specifically:

"We have devised a more elegant fix for the permissions issue we had encountered with iSync (formerly addressed in Rev C). We have re-released the desktop with the improved installer behavior. For those who have already installed Rev C, there is no reason to update to Rev D. The Rev D installer does not adjust permissions on non-Palm-related folders."

Has anyone tried this out?
