OK, I spoke too soon. But at least I think I have a lead. In both
instances, a vanilla copy of MacTex worked fine. However, in both
instances, upon firing up Tex Live Utility, and installing packages
that were not installed in the vanilla download, the errors returned.
Using the TeX Distribution pane in System Preferences, I switched
back to 2009, and all is working again. Switching to 2010 causes the
same error to return.
Of course, Tex Live Utility installed quite a number of packages, so
I'm not sure which one is the offending package, nor do I see an
easy way in Tex Live Utility to get the history of installed
packages. Is there some way to do this through the console? Or does
anyone know if there are certain known problematic packages clashing
with something in 2010 (at least in regards to the error I've
described below)?
Hi Talal. You don't need to worry about all the updated packages,
just the ones that are loaded by your document. So you can put
\listfiles in your document, run it with TL2009 and then with TL2010
and see the difference. Packages that haven't changed presumably
can't be the culprit. That might help narrow it down to a few
packages, in which case you could then try to create a minimal
document that causes the problem. Without doing that, it's quite hard
to track these sorts of things.
