Apple updates Leopard to 10.5.4

Apple has released Mac OS X 10.5.4, the fourth update to Leopard since it was released last October.

The new version contains the usual mix of bug fixes and security updates, with iCal getting the most attention. iCal won’t delete events without telling you as a result of the latest update, for example, and Apple said the update “improves overall iCal reliability.” Airport and Spaces & Expose also received some updates.

There are also a couple of security-related fixes for Safari and other issues.
