Subject: [MiKTeX] followup on pstricks bug

According to Herbert Voss (who maintains the pstricks package):


"On CTAN is a fixed version since several days. And TeXLive already has
it" -- Herbert


So, the problem (according to Herbert) is that the MikTeX repos are
(still) out of date wrt to pstricks. I just looked 5 minutes ago, and
they're still showing an update available for the 2.80a build (31-Dec),
which is the same version from ~7 days ago that had the bug in it that
several people have posted on.

The older version of pstricks (11-28-2017 build date) still works, so
until MikTeX repos are updated to the latest and greatest, you either
ignore the MikTeX update, or pull down a version yourself from CTAN.
