I tried installing from scratch, and again I now face the exact same failure. I read the install log output a little closer, and noticed this:

> mtx-install     | running: /opt/context/tex/texmf-linuxmusl-64/bin/context --luatex --generate
> mtx-context     | redirect luametatex -> luatex: luatex --luaonly --socket "/opt/context/tex/texmf-linuxmusl-64/bin/mtxrun.lua" --generate --redirected

I wonder if your test environment is really equivalent to a fresh Alpine install, or if there might be any previously installations that are allowing it to appear to succeed. Does it work if you try inside Docker?

I'm not sure what else I can try. Where's that `luatex` call supposed to be found?

Sincerely,
Bryan Kaplan
