Hi,
I just unzipped "cont-tmf.zip" in the /usr/share/texmf directory on a
rh9.
Now, the problem is that texexec can't find the cont-en.efmt or the
context.efmt files. How are these generated? I have tried to issue a
"texexec --make en de dl" command, but that one fails with:
################# CUT #####################
TeXExec 3.2 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2003
fmtutil: no info for format `cont-en'.
fmtutil: no info for format `cont-de'.
fmtutil: no info for format `cont-nl'.
TeX binary : pdfetex
format(s) : en de nl
total run time : 3 seconds
################# CUT #####################
Thanks in advance,
jules

There are probably two possible ways (I only use the fist alternative)
1) run
texexec --make --alone en de dl metafun
and copy the resulting efmt and mem files to the appropiate places.
(texmf/web2c/)
(btw. what is dl?)
2) edit the "fmtutil" helper file (fmtutil --edit) and uncomment the
cont-en ... lines and run texexec --make ... again.

I did just that, but running texexec on test.tex gives:
#################### CUT ########################
[JuBColding@apollo context]$ texexec test.tex
TeXExec 3.2 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2003

Sorry, I can't find the format `cont-en.efmt'; will try `context.efmt'.
I can't find the format file `context.efmt'!

So, what is wrong with my setup?
Thanks,

dl is just a typo..

Well, if TeX can't find something it is looking for, run mktexlsr or
texhash in order to update its database.
Verify with kpsewhich:
pg@burger:~$ kpsewhich cont-en.efmt
(in a terminal)
the output should be something like:
/opt/context/2003.7.21/texmf/web2c/cont-en.efmt
