Hi Bruno,

I don't know. We haven't changed anything in that in ages ...

You can do
	./update-tlmgr-latest.sh --noexec --keep
this will generate a tmp directory in .
Within that is a `runme` script that does the update, and a `master`
directory that contains all the necessary files.
I just confirmed that xz for universal-darwin is there.

$ ls tmp.eZAhg8Qrkbtlmksel/master/tlpkg/installer/xz/
xz.aarch64-linux*  xz.armhf-linux*   xz.i386-linux*    xz.universal-darwin*     xz.x86_64-linux*
xz.amd64-freebsd*  xz.exe*           xz.i386-netbsd*   xz.x86_64-cygwin.exe*    xz.x86_64-linuxmusl*
xz.amd64-netbsd*   xz.i386-freebsd*  xz.i386-solaris*  xz.x86_64-darwinlegacy*  xz.x86_64-solaris*
$


And on my linux box it runs without any problem:
$ ./runme
./runme.sh: updating in /home/norbert/tl/2023...
./runme.sh: tlmgr version says this is TeX Live 2023,
./runme.sh: and this updater script created: Tue Apr 11 02:50:18 CEST 2023.
./runme.sh: proceeding with tlmgr update.
./runme.sh: updating /home/norbert/tl/2023/bin/x86_64-linux ...

I suggest that you run the runme script with 
	bash -x runme --debug
collecting all output and send it here.

Thanks

Norbert
