Installing Minimals Fails

Installing Minimals Fails

[Erich R Fickel]

I am having trouble installing the context minimals. I am using Linux 
(Xandros 4.5, Debian Etch). During execution of first-setup.sh, I 
receive the following year:

---------
loading         : Context Page Macros / Layout Specification
)
! I can't find file `page-log.tex'.
<to be read again>
                   \relax
l.371 \loadcorefile{page-log.tex}

(Press Enter to retry, or Control-D to exit)
Please type another input file name:
---------

I do hope someone can help. The minimals seem to be my only path to a 
working Context that is not too old. None of the texlive-2007 packages 
will install.

Hello Erich,

That file seems to be missing in beta (renamed to page-log.mkii). Hans?

As a temporary remedy, try to edit first-setup.sh and change
--contex=beta into --context=current.

luatex run: edit (E) on syntax error

[Alan BRASLAU]

Hello,

(Learning to use mkIV under Debian)

Under luatex (texexec --lua)
it seems that choosing to edit (E)
the source file upon detection of a
syntax error echos
"You want to edit file ./filename.tex at line 68"
and then continues without launching
the editor.

Has anyone else seen this?
(of course, NOBODY other than
myself makes syntax errors!)

Thanks,

Alan
