pgf/tikz no longer works after update












7















I use Texstudio and Miktex on Win 7 as a portable version.



Today i updated my miktex-packages and everything worked fine except the "usepackage{tikz}" command.



I made a fresh reinstall with the newest versions of miktex and texstudio, opened my latex-document and compiled it. Miktex installed all missing packages on-the-fly except pgf/tikz, wich gave an error instead. I installed it manually in the package manager but texstudio still says "File "tikz.sty" not found".



Unfortunately I have to use the portable version, because I don't have any admin rights. The last time I worked on that document, everything worked fine.



Any ideas?

    The miktex package pgf is broken, it doesn't contain any files. Add an issue to github.com/MiKTeX/miktex-packaging

    I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because this is a bug in MikTeX packaging and should be reported on the bugtracker (which it already has been github.com/MiKTeX/miktex-packaging/issues/80).
