I am using MacOSX and in july this year I mailed about the error below: >> mplib : making format: metafun.mp, name: /Users/hans/TeX/ >> luatex-cache/context/60e9a4b67d8fc84c21043806bb9e2fb8/formats/cont- >> en-metafun.mem >> mplib : loading format: metafun.mp, name: /Users/hans/TeX/ >> luatex-cache/context/60e9a4b67d8fc84c21043806bb9e2fb8/formats/cont- >> en-metafun.mem >> report >> mp terminal: (/usr/local/texlive/2007/texmf-context/ >> metapost/context/base/mp-tool.mp >> ! Missing `=' has been inserted. >> >> , >> l.51 vardef mpversioncmp(expr s, >> c) = >> ! Missing `=' has been inserted. >> >> ) >> l.55 vardef mpversionlt (expr s) Sounds familiar? If you are also working on MacOSX(10.5.x) then I should expect the problem to be platform specific. I had some discussions with Taco Hoekwater about this problem, but we never solved it and I have no inkling of its cause. Since I am not well enough acquainted with the code behind mplib and friends, I had to fall back on using MKII and putting MKIV aside. But I guess the solution to this problem is pressing, since we cannot have one platform falling out on ConTeXt.
