Hi, I am getting a similar error on debian unstable.

Following the instructions in the debian README.MarkIV when I get to:

  luatools --ini --compile --verbose cont-en

I get the error

  ! LuaTeX error [string "luas[0]"]:1: attempt to call field 'luafilechunk' (a nil value).

(full listing at end of mail).

I have not run the ctxtools --update since I m not sure if is
appropriate for debian...

Any ideas?
