CoNTeXt on Mac OS X with iinstaller still broken

CoNTeXt on Mac OS X with iinstaller still broken

[Matthias Weber]

Dear Mac-ConTeXt users (and other experts),

I typically upgrade my least used Mac (my laptop)  to the newest  
ConTeXt release first, and
only go ahead with the desktop when my projects compile fine.
Otherwise, I usually wait until the more proficient users have sorted  
things out.

Now, for a while, the iinstaller ConTeXt version has been broken.  
While there have been
numerous  reports and workaround and fixes on this list, it would be  
most convenient
to have iinstaller working again (or another foolproof solution).

For reference, I attach the log file for

\starttext
ffi
\stoptext

which shows that ligatures aren't shown.

Thanks in advance!

Matthias

Thanks Taco (and Hans),

replacing the

TEXFONTMAPS =

line

in /usr/local/teTeX/texmf.cnf

by all the stuff below does indeed work (even with today's beta). Is  
there an incantation I could use
so that Gerben's iinstaller does this automatically? I want to talk  
somebody into using ConTeXt
(on a Mac), and this person is even less educated in this kind of  
surgery than I am.

Just tell Gerben what is needed and what works ... this map directive has to be set anyway (it was discussed soem time ago with KB and it will / has ended up in tex live already) 

gerben: these lines make running multiple tex engines in parallel less troublesome (esp since xetex now provides two backends) 

TEXFONTMAPS.dvipdfm  = .;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{dvipdfm,dvips,}//
TEXFONTMAPS.dvipdfmx = .;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{dvipdfm,dvips,}//
TEXFONTMAPS.pdftex   = .;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{pdftex,dvips,}//
TEXFONTMAPS.pdfetex  = .;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{pdftex,dvips,}//
TEXFONTMAPS.xetex    = .;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{xetex,pdftex,dvips,}//
TEXFONTMAPS.dvips    = .;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{dvips,pdftex,}//

is a more verbose variant of: 

TEXFONTMAPS   = .;$TEXMF/fonts/map/{$progname,pdftex,dvips,}//

(given that the prognames are set)
