Howdy,

Sorry to get onto this so late. I've been away for a short time.

I see that Bruno found something and Norbert has already dealt with it. I assume the fixed version will be on tlcontrib by tomorrow. Is it still worthwhile for me to test starting tomorrow? If so, the url I have for tlcontrib in TeX Live Utility appears to be outdated, <http://tlcontrib.metatex.org/2011/>. Do I simply need to change the 2011 to 2019?

Good Luck,
