This is getting really ridiculous. How long should we wait for an official errata for the bug-ridden Core Rulebook? It's been 8 months now!
IMHO the really ridiculous thing is people still complaining after the Paizo crew made the situation clear.
We have several options here: 1) be patient; 2) use our GM skills to adjudicate gaming situations; 3) use the tons of advice already given in various threads; 4) et cetera
Seriously though, stop whining and go game already :)

We should wait the minute at best to download it?
Seriously, look before you complain.
I'm referring to the fact that since August there hasn't been any errata although there were numerous promises of it being "just around the corner" for months now. The errata you are linking to from August doesn't even begin to scratch the surface of the problems in the book.

-100 (yes, I can play your silly game).
I have not noticed any of the existing errata, let alone any of the huge flaws you seem to have noticed.
Is there an unofficial list you are compiling or using? If so, it might be useful to share it or link it for your argument. Otherwise people like me will carry on blissfully happy with the existing product.

You might have a point. But then again, most people do not seem to notice those "bugs" you speak of, or they do not care. Now, as All DMs are evil mentioned, maybe providing a list, at least a partial one, of the flaws you mention would help make your point.
More importantly, you should drop that angry self-righteous condescending tone you've been using, and expressions like "Your silly game", since the only answers you will get with such an attitude are "Go play 4th edition", or "Back under your bridge, troll" (plus a possible suspension for trolling).
So, if you truly believe you have a point there, for the sake of your argument, please be calm and polite.

Out of interest, had all the errata referenced in that link been incorporated into the 2nd printing (which is what I have)? What about the PDF?

Could be worse. I understand the errata for Razor Coast isn't out yet, either.
Put less smark-alecky, although I sympathize with you, encorus, that it would be very nice to have all the serious error-corrections in one place, and all with the imprimatur of Paizo's design staff, the gaming industry is less reliable than others about these kinds of things.
And I, at least, am taking your frustration to mean that you really want to stick around with Pathfinder, but this issue is causing you grief. In that case, I imagine that Paizo appreciates your loyalty and passion.

The PDF should be up to date. If not, personalise and download it again, it sure is updated afterwards.
IIRC they brought out the Errata the moment the 2nd printing went to the printers, so yes, the 2nd printing has the Errata incorporated.

Last we had heard from an employee, it wasn't 'just around the corner' but would be implemented when the third printing was sent off. When this happens depends on how quickly the second printing sells. We were told at that time it would most likely be at least 2 months, but not to necessarily expect it before May, with the Game master's guide and Advanced player's guide having priority (I believe on Sean's list) until the third printing gets a deadline.
Edit: did a search, here's the actual quote from James Feb 15:
Because there ARE a lot of errors in the supposed errata threads. We have to double and triple check every post before we are sure it's actually legit... and that's on TOP of our own internal errata process.Which is, of course, on top of keeping a half dozen or so product lines from stalling out and back on schedule. It's not a quick process.
That said, we're VERY close to having the next round of errata ready for both the Core rulebook AND the Bestiary. I'm not foolish enough to promise a release date for this errata... but it's close.

I'm not sure I understand your question. You can wait as long as you like. Or you can stop waiting now, if you think it would help.
