TeX Live and MacTeX ⇒ beamer, pstricks (texlive 2014)

[DBris]

Since updating ubuntu to 14.10 (and 15.04 recently) i cannot succeed in compiling the following source:

Code: Select all

%\documentclass[a4paper]{article}%
%\usepackage{beamerarticle}
\documentclass{beamer}%
\usepackage[german]{babel}
\usepackage{pst-pdf}
\usepackage{pst-node}
%
\begin{document}
%
\begin{frame}
\begin{figure}[h!]
\begin{center}
\begin{pspicture}(-1, 0.0)(10, 8)
\cnode*(2.5,1){.5ex}{1}\rput(2.5,0.3){1}%
\cnode*(3,6){.5ex}{2}\rput(3,6.7){2}%
\cnode*(6,7){.5ex}{3}\rput(6,7.7){3}%
\cnode*(8,6.5){.5ex}{4}\rput(8,7.2){4}%
\ncarc[arcangle=0]{-}{1}{2}
\ncarc[arcangle=0]{-}{2}{3}
\ncarc[arcangle=0]{-}{2}{4}
\end{pspicture}
\caption{$G$}\label{fig:graph}
\end{center}
\end{figure}
%
\end{frame}
%
\end{document}

I use the following four commands:

Code: Select all

    latex -interaction=nonstopmode %.tex
    dvips -o %-pics.ps %.dvi
    ps2pdf %-pics.ps
    pdflatex -interaction=nonstopmode %.tex

where % is replaced by the filename. The code above allows me to replace the third line by the first two lines in order to compile lecture notes while the setting above produces beamer-slides.

Lecture notes work fine, beamer presentation aborts with the following message:

Process exited with error(s)

Both versions, slides and lecture notes, work fine on ubuntu 14.04 with texlive 2013 and ghostscript 9.10. On windows 8 with texlive 2014 and ghostscript 9.16 i encounter the same problem.

I assume the ps file is not ok (viewing it with gsview does not work either).

Anyone has an idea what goes wrong here?
