Problems with Unicode and i-Installer

Problems with Unicode and i-Installer

[Sebastian Sturm]

Hello,

after installing the new ConTeXt package (same problem for 1/16
and 1/19 beta), the installation procedure reported some missing
'unic-ext.tex' file; compiling any files that used \enableregime[utf]
didn't work anymore.
Replacing 'unic-ext' by 'unic-exp' in the file context.tex and doing
another configuration run in i-installer got rid of the error messages
both during installation and compilation. So I'd like to know if there
might be something wrong with my installation or if it really should
say 'unic-exp.tex' in context.tex. In case (i), is there anything I could
do besides rerunning the installation routines to fix my tex setup?

Best regards,
Sebastian

unic-ext is gone, and context.tex shoul dno longer have that entry (i patched it) 

uni-exp (expanded vectors) is a different thing, not loaded by default (takes more memory but is faster on big runs)

Hans, Taco, I can confirm this. I missed this error ocurring when I
checked the automatically updated i-Package.

Can we have a quick fix for this? The 1.16 and 1.19beta are already out
there and I am away from my desk so I cannot block people from installing
it.
