Hi Herbert, we have problems with pstricks.sty after the last update of TL17.
'Correcting' texmf-dist/tex/generic/pstricks/pstricks.tex:34 to
\expandafter\ifx\csname @latexerr\endcsname\relax % do we have TeX?
then @latexerr isn't defined
\input pstricks-tex.def
\else
\newif\ifpst@psfonts \pst@psfontsfalse
\fi
cures the compilation for me. Would you like to take a look please?

I see the same as Scott; Tested first with non-updated TL, everything pass. Updated, now all 'seminar_[pd]' tests fail. I see many messages in the log (creating pdf2) Missing character: There is no 0 in font nullfont! but also the following: ! Undefined control sequence. l.2805 \ifpst@psfonts The control sequence at the end of the top line of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue, and I'll forget about whatever was undefined. ! Extra \else. l.2807 \else I'm ignoring this; it doesn't match any \if. \everypsbox=\toks27 \psframesep=\dimen135 \pslabelsep=\dimen136 \sh@wgridXunit=\dimen137 \sh@wgridYunit=\dimen138 \pst@shift=\dimen139 ) ! Extra \fi. This line is in /usr/local/texlive/2017/texmf-dist/tex/generic/pstricks/pstricks.tex The command \ifpst@psfonts is defined in pstricks/pricks-tex.def with comment that it is defined in pstricks.sty, but there it is not defined.
