This looks to me as an error in the LMTX distribution:
tex error > tex error on line 6 in file /Users/hansm/TeX/context-lmtx/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/fonts/mkiv/type-imp-dejavu.mkiv: ! Missing } inserted
<inserted text>
}
<to be read again>
\aligntab
l.6 fontclass\aligntab
\fontclass\cr
Because running under my old ConTeXtBeta does not aborts with the error.
system > ConTeXt ver: 2019.06.01 19:11 MKIV beta fmt: 2019.6.4 int: english/english
I looked into that file but could not see what causes the error.

I did some more research and as a result now wonder what is happening. The error occurred in this piece of code of mine: \tabskip=1em\halign{% \alignmark\hfil\aligntab\alignmark\hfil\cr fontclass\aligntab\fontclass\cr Regular\aligntab\truefontname{Regular}\cr } \aligntab and \alignmark were advertised as LuaTeX equivalents for & and # respectively. Then I took the following example from Victor Eijkhout's book "TeX by Topic", page 197, last example. That surely should work, was the idea. \starttext \halign{a#&b#&c#\cr 1&2\cr 1\cr} \stoptext However this fails! How can such a basic example in pure TeX fail? I wonder and am curious what is happening here. This is LuaMetaTeX, Version 2.00.0 tex error > tex error on line 3 in file /Users/hansm/TeX/texmf/tex/context/user/type-loc.mkiv: ! Only one # is allowed per tab l.3 \halign{a#&b# &c#\cr 1&2\cr 1\cr} 1 \endinput 2 3 >> Op NTG ConTeXt nieuwsgroep, antwoord van Hans Hagen. 4 5 On 1/3/2014 2:33 PM, H. van der Meer wrote: 6 Has someone an idee what causes the unknown library message as in the 7 log below?
