I am using Ubuntu 13.10 with ConTeXt daily build and LuaTeX daily build. My
ConTeXt version is 2014.02.14 17:07, LuaTeX version beta-0.78.3 (TeX Live
2014/dev/Debian) (rev 4850) .

While there are some problems with using the newly added feature of
build-in support of simplefonts.

I was using something like

\definefontfamily[mainface][serif][Kepler]

\setupbodyfont[mainface]

\starttext

Hello World!

\stoptext

It would end up with using Latin Modern font.

The log is like this:

system > 'cont-new.mkiv' loaded

(/usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/cont-new.mkiv)

system > files > jobname '003', input './003', result '003'

fonts > latin modern fonts are not preloaded

languages > language 'en' is active

(/home/alan/tex/test/003.tex

fonts > preloading latin modern fonts (math)

{/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/lm/lm-math.map}{/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/lm/lm-rm.map}{/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/context/mkiv-base.map}

fonts > 'fallback modern mm 12pt' is loaded

fonts > preloading latin modern fonts (mono)

fonts > 'fallback modern tt 12pt' is loaded

fonts > defining > font with asked name 'unknown' is not found using lookup
'file'

fonts > defining > unknown font 'unknown', loading aborted

fonts > defining > unable to define 'unknown' as 'mainface-12pt-rm-tf-0--0'

backend > xmp > using file '/usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/lpdf-pdx.xml'

However, when I use something like Times New Roman (TTF), Utopia (TTF),
Georgia(TTF), FZShuSong-Z01 (TTF Chinese font) it would be working all
right, fonts applied, no error reported.

But like in the example, Kepler (OTF), Minion Pro (OTF), Utopia Std (OTF)
would failed to be applied. It is as if it would fail every OTF font.

When I am using some font in the legacy simplefonts module mode, something
like:

\usemodule[simplefonts]

\setmainfont[Kepler]

\starttext

Hello World!

\stoptext

Would be working alright. Logged as below:

fonts > latin modern fonts are not preloaded

languages > language 'en' is active

(/home/alan/tex/test/003.tex

resolvers > modules > 'simplefonts' is loaded

(/usr/share/texmf/tex/context/third/simplefonts/t-simplefonts.mkiv

loading > ConTeXt User Module / Simplefonts

<+
/usr/share/texmf/tex/context/third/simplefonts/t-simplefonts.lua>){/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/lm/lm-math.map}{/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/lm/lm-rm.map}{/usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/context/mkiv-base.map}

pages > flushing realpage 1, userpage 1

 ) )</home/alan/.fonts/KeplerStd-Subh.otf>

So what's the problem? Is there anything I should look into?

If it is a problem with TeXLive how can I use the ConTeXt Standalone
without conflict with the previous installed TeXLive (Since I am also using
LaTeX) ?

Regards.
