There has been an update of the TeX Programs i-Package. This update
contains the binaries from TeX Live development sources as of 09:00 on
Apr 10. It also contains a fix for a problem that was first reported on
this list, which prevented metafun from working properly. The problem
was with teTeX's fmtutil in combination with metafun specifics.
A pure administrative completely unnecessary update of the GhostScript 6
i-Package has also happened, but this is just because I had an error in
my build setup :-)
TeX-thin.dmg has also been updated.
TeX-fat.dmg has not been updated and contains the old version. This is
because the changes are minor. The installer on TeX-fat.dmg will detect
the upgrade, of course. TeX.dmg containing TeXGSInstaller.app has not
been upgraded. Use the i-Installer to upgrade if you installed with
TeXGSInstaller.app.
If you do not need metafun, there is no need for an upgrade. However,
since these binaries are also meant to end up in the official TeX Live
distribution, I would prefer that at least a few users upgrade to test
the new binaries and programs, as the TeX Live deadline is coming near.
To install, use your existing dedicated TeX i-Installer from TeX-
thin.dmg or TeX-fat.dmg. Then select the TeX Programs i-Package and
install.
