[powerdot] Re: 'clock' isn't working anymore

The clock option doesn't work any longer with my files nor with the example
3 file of the ctan distribution of powerdot. The problem arose after an
MiKTeX update. Formally the files compiled with the clock option, now the
file compiles only if the clock option is omitted. Does anybody know about
this problem? Is it a powerdot problem or an xcolor problem? The error
message reads:


It is a hyperref problem. In short: powerdot uses transparant (empty
color) as background for the clock so that it can take the background
slide colors. Hyperref changed the color handling from some private
things to xcolor, which does not allow empty colors. Heiko Oberdiek
knows about the problem and is working on it.
