I this may explain the dvi instead of pdf problem, but you also have
a configuration problem with mtxrun (that is not unheard of at all ...)

all good so far, no need to repeat any of it

You don't actually need /usr/local/context/bin in the PATH I think,
but it should be harmless. Mojca?

This is BAD. You definately do not want to set TEXMF to that one
directory, and do not need either of the variables at all.
After removing these two from your environment and a manual

   $ luatools --generate

all should be well. If it is not, you should post the output of

   $ env MTX_INPUT_TRACE=3 context test.tex

for debugging purposes.

Background information: It fails so miserably because if you set TEXMF,
it should have a small list of different locations, not just
   /usr/local/context/tex/texmf
In fact, most files live in
   /usr/local/context/tex/texmf-local
But simply not setting the variable at all should work just fine.

Best wishes,
Taco
