Right, Norm, that's a BUG+1 with "8" as the odd one out in r1c7.

Code:

+--------------------------+--------------------------+--------------------------+
| 12      3       6        | 4       58      9        | 278     78      15       |
| 58      4       58       | 7       1       2        | 9       6       3        |
| 9       12      7        | 3       58      6        | 28      4       15       |
+--------------------------+--------------------------+--------------------------+
| 4       8       1        | 5       2       3        | 67      79      69       |
| 3       5       2        | 6       9       7        | 4       1       8        |
| 6       7       9        | 1       4       8        | 3       5       2        |
+--------------------------+--------------------------+--------------------------+
| 18      19      3        | 2       6       4        | 5       89      7        |
| 7       6       58       | 9       3       15       | 18      2       4        |
| 25      29      4        | 8       7       15       | 16      3       69       |
+--------------------------+--------------------------+--------------------------+

I must have missed something cause I did not arrive at that BUG+1 when I did it with PnP but used a flightless xy-wing + transport to solve the puzzle:

12-28-18 (row 3, col 7) is an xy-wing that doesn't do anything.
But transporting the 1 in r3c2 via r1c1,r9c1 to r9c6 lets us eliminate 1 from r8c6 and r9c7

Tthe xy-wing basically says that if r8c7 is not 1 then r3c2 is 1.

The transport continues with "if r3c2=1 then r1c1=2 then r9c1=5 then r9c6=1"

The "1"s in r9c6 and r8c7 act as pincers like in a regular xy-wing.
