After running > sudo ctxtools --updatecontext This command doesn't necessary do what you always desire: it puts ConTeXt to texmf-local. This means that any further updates that you might try to make with tlmgr (TeX Live manager) will be shielded by your local copy. That's OK, but you need to be aware that you then have two copies of ConTeXt on your computer, and the one in texmf-local will be used. And there is something that might bite you with this as well. TeX Live is currently configured so that luatools & mtxrun binaries are taken from texmf-dist/scripts. If the rest of files comes from texmf-local, you might end in troubles/incompatibilities between the two versions. You probably need to fix symlinks of luatools and mtxrun manually. > and > luatools --generate > everything went smooth.

See http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Running_Mark_IV. But there are still some issues. Namely, you need to fix symlinks of luatools and mtxrun to point to the proper file. And you might need to remove files in texmf-local that belong to ConTeXt as a result of "ctxtools --updatecontext" (it's up to you which tree you want to use; I overwrite files in texmf-dist with some care).
