Hi!
The typearea module fails on LMTX (runs ok with MkIV):
tex error > tex error on line 89 in file /usr/local/share/context-lmtx/tex/texmf-modules/tex/context/third/typearea/t-typearea.tex: Missing number, treated as zero
LMTX 2022.08.25 19:21
Marco

Sorry, forgot the MWE:
\usemodule[typearea]
\starttext\null\stoptext

To fix the module you have to change the line
\edef\Ratio{\withoutpt{\the\dimexpr2\paperheight/(\PageWidth/32768)\relax}}
with (remove one pair of curly braces)
\edef\Ratio{\withoutpt\the\dimexpr2\paperheight/(\PageWidth/32768)\relax}
Similar problems can happens with other modules because many of them are
outdated
and they should be either updated or removed (the files can still be
archived).
