This works for me, but there are a few things that needed slight adjustment, so I wanted to report them here to encourage others to start testing it. I needed to set TEXMF=/etc/texmf. Luatools doesn't seem to handle the {..} in the variables that are combined in TEXMF. Also, when it didn't find AlProTex.sty, the message indicated that it couldn't find AlProTeX.sty ('x'-->'X')! For testing, you can just set some simplified TEXMF, e.g.,: export TEXMF={$HOME/texmf,/usr/local/texmf,/usr/share/texmf-texlive,/usr/share/texmf} or you can edit /etc/texmf/texmf.d/05TeXMF.cnf to simplify things like: TEXMFDIST = /usr/share/texmf-{texlive,tetex} In my case, I no longer have texmf-textex, so this became just TEXMFDIST = /usr/share/texmf-texlive Then run: "update-texmf" and "luatools --generate" You can check the TEXMF variable with: $ luatools --expand-var TEXMF More tests to make sure the configuration is working: $ luatools msam7.afm /usr/share/texmf-texlive/fonts/afm/bluesky/ams/msam7.afm Then build the format: $ luatools --ini --verbose --compile cont-en and compile something: $ texexec --luatex foo TeXExec | processing document 'foo' TeXExec | no ctx file found TeXExec | tex processing method: context TeXExec | TeX run 1 TeXExec | writing option file foo.top TeXExec | using randomseed 967 TeXExec | tex engine: luatex TeXExec | tex format: cont-en This is luaTeX, Version 3.141592-beta-0.11.2-2007092410 (Web2C 7.5.6) (./foo.tex ConTeXt ver: 2007.09.28 16:52 MKIV fmt: 2007.10.12 int: english/english [...] -- George N.
