Minimal working example is:

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{tikz}
\usepackage{auto-pst-pdf}
\usepackage{psfrag}
\usepackage{tcolorbox}

\newtcbox{\mybox}{}

\begin{document}

\begin{figure}
   \psfrag{C0}[Bc][bl][1.5]{\mybox{$x$}}
   \includegraphics{empty.eps}
\end{figure}

\end{document}

(the content of empty.eps doesn't matter). Attempting to compile this with

pdflatex -shell-escape mwe.tex

leads to the following error:

Error: /undefined in pgfo

What's amiss here?

P.S.: This TikZ and auto-pst-pdf break Ghostscript seems to be related.

    You want to use a tcolorbox as replacement text in a .eps file? Compilation works for me with xelatex, however –  Jan 04 '19 at 22:52
  • Yes, I want. In fact I did, meaning that this worked with pdflatex for at least some version (on a computer that's now broken). – BlenderBender Jan 04 '19 at 22:59
