We have many computers with 13.x and a 30 day MDM OS install delay trying to do a --install-macos-major-upgrades. Mist is being called/verified but never gets installed because it's limited to < macOS 13

Considerations:
-Removing the Restrictions profile works fine and mist is not needed.
-Forcing mist to install resolves the problem.
-Perhaps there's an issue with restrictions deferral and availability of super to handle.

Forcing mist

Line 3862

If needed, validate mist-cli and if missing or invalid then install and check again.
if [[ "${install_macos_major_upgrades}" == "TRUE" ]] && { [[ "${macos_version_major}" -lt 13 ]] || [[ -n "${install_macos_major_upgrades_target}" ]]; }; then

Changing to 14 solves it.

Fresh super install with --install-macos-major-upgrades and vebose show:

First, super does not use the Mist.app... it uses the standalone mist-cli wich has support for macOS 11 or newer. For example, below you will see output from a test I ran today on macOS 12.

It's also not likley that the deferral configuration profile is affecting mist-cli because it's download mechanism has nothing to do with that config profile. The deferral config profile does, however, directly affect the results of the mdmclient and softwareupdate commands that are also used by super.

In any case, I can't replicate this issue as mist-cli works in all my tests on various older macOS versions. Have you by any chance modified super to use a different path or version of mist-cli?

I was using non modified 5.0.0. As I mentioned the issue seems to be that (due to restrictions profile?), the macOS 13 system can't see available updates and then tries to rely on mist. Mist isn't available because super only gets it for 12 and lower.
