ConTeXt on android via "debian noroot"-App

[Thomas Klein]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 902 bytes --]

Hello ConTeXt-Crew,

thank you very much for this fantastic application. I'm a former LaTeX-user
and now I can't imagine to go back ever.

Recently I tried to install ConTeXt in an android smartphone with help of
the app "debian noroot". Everything went fine and I'm able to compile
documents, but all \framed-Commands lead to the error-message

"tex error on line 2 in file...: !You can't use '\hrule' here except with
leaders"

The minimal example is:

\starttext
\framed{Hello}
\stoptext

I suspect the cause for this might be missing packages (metapost?). Can you
give me any hint, what packages I have to install? I installed the ConTeXt
Standalone from contextgarden and I'm running context version 2016.01.18
22:21 (ConTeXt Process Management 0.63). I already tried to install the
package texlive-metapost, but it didn't help.

Help would highly be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
Thomas Klein.

I'm unable to try this out both because my phone is too small and
because I don't have sufficient internal memory. Maybe I could borrow
a tablet and check.

Just curious: how did you install this and which binaries were
fetched? Did you use first-setup.sh that fetched linux-armel? Honestly
I'm completely amazed that it worked at all without any additional
work.

If you installed "texlive-metapost", that probably put the metapost
binary in a different location anyway and it might have problems
communicating with ConTeXt. If you are able to install packages from
debian, you could try "texlive-context" and see whether that one
works.

I just tried it and exactly the same problem is also present on
Raspberry PI (which is where the binaries were built). It might be a
bit easier to debug there than on a phone.

that's probably old luatex source code

Can you please submit an abstract to the BachoTeX conference:
    http://www.gust.org.pl/bachotex/2016-en?set_language=en
and present your work there?

I believe that many people would be interested to see TeX working
nicely on an Android device and it would make for a very nice
discussion/brainstorming session about further improvements.

The conference is completely family-friendly.
