[OS X TeX] Re: EPS files displayed as blank white box with latest TeX version (latex + Ghostscript)

Got no answer so far (because nobody can reproduce it, I suppose), so I
have to try to solve it myself.

- On a fresh install of OS X 10.4.3 everything works.

- My original set-up (to which my first mail refers) was a fresh 10.4.3
but all apps were 'installed' using the Migration Assistant.

- Installing TeX before running the Migration Assistant does not fix it.

- pdflatex works in all tested configurations.


So, my conclusion is that probably have to delete everything related to
TeX, Ghostscript etc. and reinstall it.

Any ideas where I have look? I would delete (in addition to running the 
uninstaller in the i-installer):

- /usr/local/teTeX/
- ~/Library/texmf
- ~/Documents/i-Packages
- ~/Documents/Computer/LaTeX
