[NTG-context] OBSD 7.3 binary locally compiled… what next?

[NTG-context] OBSD 7.3 binary locally compiled… what next?

[damien thiriet via ntg-context]

Hi,


I upgraded today my OBSD to 7.3 and… realized too late that texlive 
binaries were on the compile farm, but not the lmtx ones. That was the 
opportunity to learn self-install, though.
I compiled the binary, but I am stuck with the next step

What I did:

- rm -rf /usr/local/context/* (now I suspect I should have first updated 
my 7.2 installation and then, after upgrading to 7.3, compiled the 
binaries…)
- download  https://www.pragma-ade.nl/context/latest/cont-tmf.zip
- unpacked it into /usr/local/context (unzip cont-tmf.zip -d 
/usr/local/context/)
- cd /usr/local/context/source/luametatex
- ./build.sh --native

Compilation succeeded, looks like the binary lies in
/usr/local/context/source/luametatex/build/native/luametatex

What's the next step?

There was this message:

==============
tex trees

resources like public fonts  : tex/texmf/....
the context macro package    : tex/texmf-context/....
the luametatex binary        : tex/texmf-native/bin/...
optional third party modules : tex/texmf-context/....
fonts installed by the user  : tex/texmf-fonts/fonts/data/....
styles made by the user      : tex/texmf-projects/tex/context/user/....

binaries:

tex/texmf-<your platform>/bin/luametatex     : the compiled binary (some 
2-3MB)
tex/texmf-<your platform>/bin/mtxrun         : copy of or link to 
luametatex
tex/texmf-<your platform>/bin/context        : copy of or link to 
luametatex
tex/texmf-<your platform>/bin/mtxrun.lua     : copy of 
tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/mtxrun.lua
tex/texmf-<your platform>/bin/context.lua    : copy of 
tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/context.lua

commands:

mtxrun --generate                 : create file database
mtxrun --script fonts --reload    : create font database
mtxrun --autogenerate context ... : run tex file (e.g. from editor)
https://www.pragma-ade.nl/context/latest/cont-tmf.zip

The tex/texmf/ folder does not exist yet.

Does this mean I have to create that part of the tree by hand (which 
means should I have unpacked the zip at /usr/local/context/tex/texmf 
rather than /usr/local/context)?I’d bet copying anything(copying mtxrun 
from
/usr/local/context/scripts/context/stubs/unix/mtxrun ?

Should I run install.sh – which I not did, assuming maybe wrongly that 
it would fail, and if so, which options?

Thank you for your time,

Damien

you should make

tex/texmf-openbsd7.3-amd64

and put 5 files there:

luametatex
context -> luametatex
mtxrun  -> luametatex
mtxrun.lua
context.lua

you can take the lua files from

tex/texmf-openbsd7.2-amd64

or you can just rename the 7.2 path to 7.3 and move luametatex there

(of course you then also need to adapt your path to the new situation)

Thanks for your hints. I did as you said but got stucked with a tree 
structure problem.
Since I was lacking the time to dig into it, and a new update was 
announced, I simply loaded the new binary from pragma.
But I now understand the workflow to update to 7.4: update to the latest 
lmtx (I do not update so often), ugrade OBSD, build the new binary if no 
upload is available.

Anyway, 7.3 binaries work ok.
Many thanks!
