Research direction

Reproduce sudo xcodes runtimes install 'iOS 15.5' on an Apple M1 Pro and inspect the reported /usr/sbin/installer failure with the cached package under ~/Library/Caches/com.robotsandpencils.xcodes/. The work is done when the iOS 15.5 runtime installs successfully through the command.
