[tex-live] MacTeX 2013 problem

[Giovanni Dore]

I want to report a problem I had with the pretest version of MacTeX 2013.
Everything worked very well until today.
After un update via the terminal command
sudo tlmgr update --all
the output was

If necessary I can send you a log file, but I don't know which is the interesting one.

Thank you, best regards
