There was a small problem with altpdftex in combination with u-psbuild
distiller frontend which was discovered. This problem *only* occurs when
you put settings in ~/.cshrc that should not be there and when you use
u-psbuild as distiller frontend, so almost nobody is affected.
Also, the new installer will show it's version and it will also log
installation info in /var/log/TeXGSInstaller.log and create
/usr/local/teTeX/TeXGSInstaller.version and
/usr/local/share/ghostscript/TeXGSInstaller.version containing
information about what version you have and when it was installed. This
will help me debug any problems.

There is no need to download the entire 48MB distribution if you are
running the previous version. If you absolutely want to be up to date
and you do not want to download everything, download
ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/comp/macosx/tex-gs/altpdftex/altpdftex-1.11
and copy it to its correct destination like this:
sudo cat altpdftex-1.11 >`which altpdftex`
in a Terminal window. And if you use u-psbuild, download
ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/comp/macosx/tex-gs/altpdftex/u-psbuild
and copy it to its correct destination like this:
sudo cat u-psbuild >/usr/local/bin/u-psbuild
Copying this way (overwriting the contents of the existing versions)
will keep permissions of the files unchanged.
