[OS X TeX] Hyperref in 2018 and 2019 TeXLive

[Nestor Aguilera]

I installed the MacTeX-2020 distribution hoping that the hyperref problem would be solved, but this does not seem to be the case. The examples below work with the 2018 distribution but not with the 2019 or 2020.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.
