Yes, I ought to have said that first!!

Now here is what I tried just now:

1/ reinstall lua by hand
2/ remove everything in /usr/local context, and unzip again justtex and
linuxtex
3/ rename /usr/local/texlive to some name unknown from my path (surely
wasn't necessary, but let's try anything...)
4/ edit setuptex and defined $TMP and $TEXMFCACHE there
5/ . setuptex
6/ texexec --make --all --pdftex
7 /texexec --make --all --xetex
8/ texexec --make --all --luatex
9/ luatools --generate
10/ luatools --ini --compile --verbose cont-en

And again, context complains the same way:

TeXExec | unable to fix backend map path
TeXExec | running: luatools --fmt=cont-en test.tex

LuaTools | using format name /tmp/luatex-cache/context/formats/cont-en.fmt
LuaTools | no luc/lua with name /tmp/luatex-cache/context/formats/cont-en
LuaTools |
LuaTools | runtime: 0.12 seconds
TeXUtil | unable to locate test.tui

actually then, even pdftex is broken!

I'm certainly missing something obvious?
