Can someone verify this error please
or is there something wrong with my code?

The figure file is not found here as well (2006.08.08).  But if I
change it to:

\startMPrun
\input test.mp
\stopMPrun
\starttext
\externalfigure[w-mprun.1][width=15mm]
\stoptext

then there's no problem (w.tex was the source file, hence the
w-mprun).

Update context in Suse 9.3

[batela]

Dear Sirs,

In my laptop  I have the Suse linux 9.3. This distro has tetex 3,
but I intend to update conTeXt . I tried already  some ways, but
without success: download an install (unpack and texexec --make --all) 
cont-tmf in the texmf directory,  using texlive.spm (but I found a 
rsync time out error). I need urgently to make the update, but I do not 
know as to make it. Suggestions are welcome.

Jorge

For "I urgently need to use new ConTeXt" the easiest way to explain is
to download
    http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/install/justtex.zip
    http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/install/linuxtex.zip
unzip them and then use
   cd tex
   . setuptex
   texexec --make --all

and then compile your documents (from the same shell).

But what exactly goes wrong if you overwrite your old files in "texmf"
with the new ones from
http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/beta/cont-tmf.zip and then try to
run "texexec --make --all"? Missing environmental variables perhaps?

There are many "Installation" pages on the wiki, so if they don't suit
it's best to update them/add information about other possibilities and
systems.

Hi Wolfgang,
I tested your code. The result is negativ. My installation complains 
abou tthe fact that the input file is not found

This is MetaPost, Version 0.901 (Web2c 7.5.3)
(testMPrun-mprun.mp
! I can't find file `test.mp'.
l.143 \input test.mp
using ConTeXt  ver: 2006.08.08 17:52  fmt: 2006.8.8  int: english  mes: 
english.

The same result occurs with ConTeXt  ver: 2006.09.13 23:47 MK II  fmt: 
2006.9.14  int: english/english

Re: beta

Thanks Hans, that was stupid me.

Still it is not solved. Now I get the messagage test.1 is not found. In 
the log however I see, that a file testMPrun-mprun.1 is written. If the 
test file is altered in such a way that this testMPrun-mprun.1 file 
should be loaded, I still get the message, that this file is not found. -- ?
