Here I must admit I have no idea what you mean by "this change". Is this some specific mechanism introduced in El Capitan, that (ie the mechanism) would ask users to update their apps? I don't remember seeing anything of the sort. Or are you referring to El Capitan as a whole?

Still no luck here. My impression is that we get similar log up to

But then for me that stops here, whereas you get more.

What happens is that, immediately after starting TLU, I get the panel

and the log starts to fill until this null pdftex paper size, where it stops. I press OK in the panel, which disappears, but nothing else happens after that.

At about the same time in Console.app, there is

10/10/15 22:30:18,752 lsd[277]: LaunchServices: Could not store lsd-identifiers file at /private/var/db/lsd/com.apple.lsdschemes.plist

but I don't know whether that's connected. In any case, I don't have any /var/db/lsd/*.

To be sure, I checked "Show progress in system log" then quit TLU and tried again. Here's the Console output.

At one point I even thought this could be this linked to System Integrity Protection, that maybe Adam would have disabled inadvertently. Or that maybe Adam had on his computer a code-signing certificate, allowing TLU to perform certain operations on his machine that would be stopped by SIP on mine. But the fact Herb gets working TLU, makes me think this is none of the sort.
