Re: problem with a new installation of LMTX

Hello Otared,

"... get overwritten and are modified for some unknown reasons: in
particular the two lua files become complete garbage…"

I found the same today under Gentoo Linux, and the same for the lua
files under (can't check which as I've deleted the install):

~/lmtx/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin


Best, Richard

Hi Dalyoung,

I installed MacOS 10.15 Catalina on a partition of my Mac and tried to
install LuaMetaTeX there. I did not succeed … 
Indeed I had to disable completely the Gatekeeper from the Terminal by
issuing the command

	sudo spctl --master-disable

(which, one can re-enable again by saying sudo spctl --master-enable).
But the problem is that  after issuing the command

	sh install.sh

the three files mtx-install.lua, mtxrun.lua, mtxrun, which are in

	/context-osx-64/bin/

get overwritten and are modified for some unknown reasons: in
particular the two lua files become complete garbage… while in MacOS
10.14 these files are unchanged.
So in fact the installation process cannot continue in MacOS 10.15,
and even though the directories in 

	/context-osx-64/tex/

are created, the binaries and the formats are not there. I guess other
people on the list may have installed LuaMetaTeX under MacOS 10.15 and
they can help us understand what is going on. 

Later in the day I'll try to understand how to bypass the security
assessments (and the overwrite of the above three files) of MacOS
10.15, and let you know if I find a solution.

Sorry for not being helpful at this point…

Best regards: Otared K.
