[tex-live] Update failure

[Justin C. Walker]

I just tried to update two systems: one Mac OS X, 10.5.8; and the other Mac OS X, 10.6.4.  The update on the 10.5 system completed, and the results seem to be functional.

The update on the 10.6 system failed.  The tail of the log file (appended below) shows something involving luatex failed:

      fmtutil-sys --no-error-if-no-format --byengine luatex failed (status 1), output:
      fmtutil: fmtutil: unknown option `--no-error-if-no-format'. Try fmtutil --help for help.

Full log is available if needed.

With this failure, TLU/tlmgr seems to think that its job is done (no updates available).  The URL for this update is
       <http://ftp.math.utah.edu:80/pub//texlive/tlpretest>

How does one recover from this?

Thanks,

Justin
