Hello, Sorry I did not get back to you earlier, it got hectic starting Monday morning. I am sorry but I do not understand what exactly I am supposed to do. I installed following those instructions from Luigi, on a previous message: Open a shell as a root and then #> mkdir -p /opt/context/minimals-2010-07- 03 #> cd /opt/context/minimals-2010-07-03 #> rsync -av rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/setup/first-setup.sh . #> bash first-setup.sh ## wait a bit... #> cd tex #> . setuptex When I run luatools --generate, I get this : LuaTools | fileio: variable 'SELFAUTOLOC' set to '/usr/bin' LuaTools | fileio: variable 'SELFAUTODIR' set to '/usr' LuaTools | fileio: variable 'SELFAUTOPARENT' set to '/' LuaTools | fileio: variable 'TEXMFCNF' set to '{$SELFAUTODIR,$SELFAUTOPARENT}{,{/share,}/texmf{-local,.local,}/web2c}' LuaTools | fileio: loading configuration file /usr/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf LuaTools | fileio: preparing 'configuration' for '/usr/share/texmf/web2c' LuaTools | fileio: 'configuration' saved in '/home/pascale/luatex-cache/context/6300afb4995fe38c77e9b86ed1ef1028/trees/f7d1b3c25487ab1e1035aff1c53b90da.lua' LuaTools | fileio: 'configuration' compiled to '/home/pascale/luatex-cache/context/6300afb4995fe38c77e9b86ed1ef1028/trees/f7d1b3c25487ab1e1035aff1c53b90da.luc' LuaTools | fileio: locating list of '/home/pascale/.texmf-config' LuaTools | fileio: tex locator '/home/pascale/.texmf-config' found LuaTools | fileio: hash '/home/pascale/.texmf-config' appended LuaTools | fileio: locating list of '/home/pascale/.texmf-var' LuaTools | fileio: tex locator '/home/pascale/.texmf-var' found LuaTools | fileio: hash '/home/pascale/.texmf-var' appended LuaTools | fileio: locating list of '/home/pascale/texmf' LuaTools | fileio: tex locator '/home/pascale/texmf' not found LuaTools | fileio: locating list of '/etc/texmf' (etc...) The context executable is located in: /opt/context/minimals-2010-07-03/tex/texmf-linux/bin What am I supposed to put into my .profile file? export PATH = /opt/context/minimals-2010-07-03/tex/texmf-linux/bin (??) Is it what you meant by "I don't know those two programs in detail. But as a general rule, you need to add /path/to/tex/texmf- linuxorwhateverelse/bin to PATH." ? Is it then that I have to run luatools --generate? I am sorry but I am not famiiar with this type of installation, and I am having a hard time figuring out the difference between the use of "/path/to/" as in /opt/context/minimals-2010-07-03/tex/texmf-linux/bin and "/path/to" as in ". /path/to/setupetex"... I hope you don't mind my questions and that I can finish this installation. Thank you again very much in advance. --Pascale 2010/7/4 Mojca Miklavec > On Sun, Jul 4, 2010 at 00:10, Pascale Julia wrote: > > My last question if I may: > > So I may not reply to the other question then? :) > > > I am using Kile as an editor, and warming up to using Emacs.
