Dmitry,

By "from TexArchive", how did you install the TexLive 2020?

When I install upstream TeX Live, I follow the instructions at:

    https://www.tug.org/texlive/acquire-netinstall.html

By the way, in your error report, you said:

>>> ...
>>> SMPdesign/CPUvsEnet.eps --> SMPdesign/CPUvsEnet.pdf
>>> SMPdesign/DiningPhilosopher4part-b.tex -->
>>> SMPdesign/DiningPhilosopher4part-b.eps
>>> sh utilities/mpostcheck.sh
>>> SMPdesign/DiningPhilosopher4part-b.eps -->
>>> SMPdesign/DiningPhilosopher4part-b.pdf
>>> make: *** [Makefile:400: SMPdesign/DiningPhilosopher4part-b.pdf] Error 1    ...

, which suggests your a2ping & gs pair accepts other .eps files such as
/SMPdesign/CPUvsEnet.eps.
If this is the case, I suspect that the .eps file generated from .tex
is somehow incompatible with the command pair.

Can you share your SMPdesign/DiningPhilosopher4part-b.eps so that I can
compare it with mine?

        Thanks, Akira
