Hi guys,
How can i get a somewhat recent and stable version where things just work.
I've tried --stable and --context=stable which both insist of getting
luatex 0.40.
mtxrun --verbose --script ./bin/mtx-update.lua --update --make --force
--engine=all --context=stable --stable --texroot=$PWD/tex
--extras="t-letter,t-mathsets,t-tikz,t-vim" $@
There's a lot of things broken in the current minimals, e.g., bib
module, hanging, a error about front and I can't to even seem to use OT
fonts.
I think context should complain when a CLI options hasn't been spelt
correctly:
$ context --batchmoed
Many thanks
Mohamed

the names of stable versions is 'current' but you need also a older
LuaTeX version

t-letter :)

True. We only provide a single version of LuaTeX and "current" (that
often gets broken as well) doesn't work with the latest LuaTeX. I'm
looking forward to nice suggestions about how to solve the issue. One
can fetch an "arbitrary" version of LuaTeX from repository, but that's
not convenient.

Does it take too much space to also store the old versions of luatex
binary? After all, we are only talking about the stable releases of
ConTeXT.

an option is to have a 0.30 0.40 0.50 etc branch; alongside we can store
the latest context mkiv that still works on such a version

Perhaps just one sentence in the wiki:
If you want to run minimals-current, the you must overwrite your
luatex-binary with an older version. For example like this:
svn cat http://svn.contextgarden.net/minimals/bin/tex/linux-64/current/luatex/bin/luatex@XXX >`which luatex`
You only need to check, what number XXX should be...
Cheers, Peter

Thank you all!
When was \mainlanguage[ukenglish] added?
Producer: luaTeX-0.30.3
CreationDate: Mon Apr 27 14:48:13 2009
ModDate: ConTeXt - 2008.10.31 13:58
Is there an alternative?
