Dear Vic,
thanks for the messagge. It turned out that I had a permission
problem with the folder usr/local/texlive/2010
I changed them back to the correct state and everythning started to
work fine again.
This was suggested me by Adam Maxwell; thanks again, Adam.
After a while I was also able to figure out why the permissions
were uncorrect: several months ago I had a problem with beamer
(http://tug.org/mailman/htdig/macostex-archives/2010-February/042930.html)
and, before the patch was released via tlmgr, I manually inserted
the patch on the correct beamer setting file. At that moment I changed
the permission settings of usr/local/texlive/2010 to be able to insert
the patched file in its correct folder and then I forgot to change back
the permissions...
Best regards,
Alessandro
