Tabular environment with array package and [table]{xcolor} gives errors
The following code does not build after having installed latest MikTeX from scratch, with all packages updated:
documentclass[a4paper, 12pt]{article}
usepackage{array}
usepackage[table]{xcolor}
begin{document}
begin{tabular}{p{90pt}}
test \
end{tabular}%
end{document}
The error messages starts on begin{tabular} line with
Use of @startpbox doesn't match its definition
Extra }, or forgotten endgroup
...
A similar error is discussed here. That discussion hints to there being a bug in colortbl package loaded by the "table" option of xcolor. Indeed, if I remove the [table] option, then the document builds. However, I have the latest version of all packages, including colortbl at version 1.0d which is the latest.
Is this still a bug in colortbl, a bug somewhere else, or am I doing something wrong?

Got it working. For some reason colortbl was not installed. On the other hand, there was colortbl.sty on C:Users<user>AppDataRoamingMiKTeX2.9texlatexcolortbl, which was an old version 1.0a. I wonder what these files are. Remnants of an old installation?

I installed MikTeX for all users. I did the admin update, but it seems like I did not do the user update. Whereas the admin packages contained colortbl 1.0d without the bug, the user packages contained colortbl 1.0a with the bug. Updating the user packages removed the colortbl package, after which the build succeeeded, because it now referred to colortbl 1.0d.
