Consider the following MWE:



documentclass{article}
usepackage{pstricks}
begin{document}
A
end{document}


It produces the error



Runaway argument?
] {pgffor.code.tex}
! Paragraph ended before ProvidesPackageRCS@i was complete.
<to be read again>

    The only way currently imho is to go back to an older pgf version until pstricks is fixed (I wrote the author already)

    You could try to replace in a local copy of pstricks.tex (you find it in tex/generic) defProvidesPackageRCS{@ifnextchar[ProvidesPackageRCS@i{ProvidesPackageRCS@i }}%$ by defProvidesPackageRCS#1{}

    use pstricks.tex from http://archiv.dante.de/~herbert/texnik/tex/generic/pstricks/
    or wait one or two days for the update. It has a slightly other solution.

    • I didn't try to make a real solution - suppressing all message are naturally not right.

    • There is only a problem, if someone uses a development version of pstricks.tex and an old pgf. Later it will be the same as you already suggested.
