I do 'mkdir $HOME/temx; cd $HOME/texmf; unzip -La /tmp/cont-tmf.zip;
texhash; mkdir web2c;
fmtutil --fmtdir web2c; --byhyphen fmtutil --showhyphen cont-en`;
cd web2c; mpost -ini metafun; pdfetex -ini mptopdf; texhash'
which should work if `kpsewhich texmf.cnf` sets HOMETEXMF accordingly.
TeXExec etc. should work since /usr/bin/texexec uses kpsewhich to find
the script.

Well, it depends: teTeX is nicely installed while TeXLive is contains
some goodies and is more up to date (but never as up to date as the
cont-tmf.zip file ...) -- I prefer teTeX, but this is a matter of
taste.
