Yes, I know; which is why I wrote "for me" later in the
message.

Anyway, I just upgraded to 0.994a this Sunday morning.
It all seemed to go fine, except for these messages
in the Installer Log (using xetex.pkg) :

Jul 23 10:51:35 GlenLivet : postflight[22899]:   2 for language 1
Jul 23 10:51:35 GlenLivet : postflight[22899]:   181 for language 0

In fact  xelatex.fmt  was built successfully:

[GlenLivet:tex/latex/misc] rossmoor% ls -l `kpsewhich xelatex.fmt`
-rw-r--r--   1 root  wheel  2418568 Jul 23 10:51 /usr/local/teTeX/ 
share/texmf-var/web2c/xelatex.fmt

  ... and jobs run OK.
So it looks like there's an innocuous error somewhere in the   
postflight  script.


Cheers,
