after updating to GS 9.50 embedding pdf images with xelatex on texlive with pstricks in use
produces the error below and pstricks fails to work. Has anyone see something like this?
Previous GS version was working fine. I tried to downgrade GS but did not work (it was missing some
libraries). Anyway the proper route is to correct this bug.
I run xelatex as root hoping to bypass the "Permission denied" seen below, but it did not work.
Again I got the "Permission denied" error.

The proper route is to report this in right place: https://bugs.ghostscript.com/

Nickolas0 it could be an intentional change in ghostscript see https://www.ghostscript.com/doc/current … ersion9.50

@loqs yes in that case the proper route is to report it to xelatex, texlive or pstricks. This isn;t Arch bug.

Good. I will do that. Report it to pstricks. By the way I tested the texlive that comes with Arch and it has the same problem.
Thanks.

I talked to Herbert Voss of pstricks and here is the solution for the record:
We modify texlive/2019/texmf-dist/dvipdfmx/dvipdfmx.cfg
line 159, from
D "rungs -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH ...
to
D "rungs -q -dNOSAFER -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH ...
