[NTG-context] Error when running context --make after updating context (FreeBSD)

Hi folks,

I receive the following error when running context --make command (after
update via install.sh):

lua error       > lua error on line 18 in file file-mod.mklx:

token call, execute:
...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkxl/file-mod.lmt:78: attempt to
call a nil value (field 'getrunstate')
stack traceback:
    ...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkxl/file-mod.lmt:78: in
local 'code'
    ...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/util-lua.lua:97: in
field 'loadedluacode'
    ...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/luat-env.lua:108: in
field 'luafilechunk'
    ...ext/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkxl/luat-cod.lmt:82: in
function 'lua.registercode'
    [ctxlua]:1: in main chunk
<empty file>
A number should have been here; I inserted '0'. (If you can't figure out
why I
needed to see a number, look up 'weird error' in the index to The TeXbook.)

Any clues as to what causes this error?

System is FreeBSD 14.2

TIA and regards,

PT

It looks like you might have an incompatible binary installed.

Did you install the OpenBSD version on the contextgarden page or from some other source such as a TeXLive CD/DVD?
<https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Input_and_compilation/Installation>

If you have both installed, are you sure your path is set to pick up the latest one?
