[OS X TeX] Potential problem with MacTeX2018

Hello,

I successfully installed MacTeX2018 (MT2018) and tried to typeset a document on which I’ve been working with MacTeX2017 (MT2017). The document failed to typeset when I attempted to run MT2018. I think the problem may be that my document uses the STIX font package and MT2018 hiccups with it. 

To summarize:

My document 

1. typesets correctly with MT2017 and the STIX font.

2. fails to typeset with MT2018 and the STIX font.

3. typesets correctly with MT2018 and the Latin Modern font.

Clearly, MacTeX 2018 is not handling the STIX font correctly. 

I don’t know how to fix this and will appreciate comments and suggestions.


Here are some details.

Encoding selected in TeXShop Preferences for all typesetting runs



Partial preamble of .tex document file run with MT2017

The document uses the STIX font and typesets correctly

% ----------Document class-------------------------------
\documentclass[12pt,reqno]{amsart}

%-------Packages----------------------------------------
% !TEX encoding = IsoLatin9
\usepackage[latin9]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[lcgreekalpha]{stix}
%\usepackage{lmodern}
 
\usepackage{textcomp}

\usepackage{amsmath,amsthm,amsxtra}
%\usepackage{amssymb}	%This is redundant when using STIX.

———————————————————————

Partial preamble of .tex document file typeset successfully with MT2018 using the Latin Modern font instead of STIX font.

It is unnecessary to display the log output file because it contains no errors.

% !TEX encoding = IsoLatin9
\usepackage[latin9]{inputenc}
