How does mtxrun selecting tma files?

How does mtxrun selecting tma files?

[Weiwei Guo]

Hi everyone,

If you get two same email from me, sorry for that. I used a wrong email address in the previous email. That email 
address is not the subscribed email address of the list.

I'm new to the list and also new to ConTeXt. I'm configuring my ConTeXt distributed with TeX Live 2008 and I cannot get
my mtxrun working.


I'm using Gentoo which put texmf.cnf in /etc/texmf/web2c. I set

TEXMFCNF = /etc/texmf/web2c
TEXMFCACHE = /var/cache/texmf

and run

# luatool --generate

It seems fine and I get seven tma files (along with tmc files) in /var/cache/texmf:

0638a6bb4aac17125bf8bd1aa29dc0c8.tma
5044cbe2799fe389b078f26ff6b9ee8e.tma
aa488cd1b5c872b403f3532fd1b4df18.tma
3c56e5e8bc2a4b2593850bb5489fdfee.tma
5a308100aaf95a99c661562a470a4cf8.tma
49ce9fb6981e7315a79363280fdfe510.tma
76f9d14d3870a3ca17c588db81902d3d.tma

But when I run

$ context hello.tex

MtxRun | loading configuration for /etc/texmf/web2c from
/var/cache/texmf/luatex-cache/context/b51cb04348b3b14d1dfc7333fc9b63f2/trees/3c56e5e8bc2a4b2593850bb5489fdfee
MtxRun | error no format found with name cont-en
MtxRun | total runtime: 0.086


It seems mtxrun only searching in 3c56e5e8bc2a4b2593850bb5489fdfee.tma. I find that cont-en.tex is listed in
5a308100aaf95a99c661562a470a4cf8.tma.

How can I make mtxrun searching in all tma files instead of only 3c56e5e8bc2a4b2593850bb5489fdfee.tma?

Thanks in advance!

Best wishes,
Wei-Wei

Good so far, but you are missing a command between this and the one you 
gave below. You should do:

   # context --make

> $ context hello.tex

Best wishes,
Taco
