Re: Context 2005.11.30 Released (bis)

Hans, Taco,

Just installed the newest update and update my manual tree via svn. I  
can report that the uplt8r problem has not gone away. I know how to  
fix it, but I thought you wanted to see this and address type-diz or  
something like that?

(/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/tex/context/base/type-buy.tex)) 
kpathsea: Running mktextfm uplr8t
mktextfm: Running mf-nowin -progname=mf \mode:=ljfour; mag:=1;  
nonstopmode; input uplr8t
This is METAFONT, Version 2.71828 (Web2C 7.5.5)

kpathsea: Running mktexmf uplr8t
! I can't find file `uplr8t'.
<*> ...:=ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode; input uplr8t

Please type another input file name
! Emergency stop.
<*> ...:=ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode; input uplr8t

Transcript written on mfput.log.
