So any information leading to a conclusion is at least a week old. I am on a linux install (SuSE 10.0) and the wiki indicates to install ConTeXt in the location '/usr/TeX/texmf'. Even before this step it says to setup the fonts for ConTeXt use: cd /usr/TeX/texmf/context/data sudo texfont type-tmf.dat --en=texnansi --fontroot=/usr/TeX/texmf --install --makepath But TeXLive 2005 (where I did install ConTeXt - but want to update it) that I am using does not have a 'texmf/context' directory. However, there is a 'texmf-dist/context' directory. I need some guidance to make sure this is the proper directory or not. The only other thing I note in the TeXLive docs: For texmf: This tree (texmf) is for the support files and documentation of the programs in TeX Live. It does not include the TeX formats and packages themselves. Another criteria: everything that can be classified automatically by Fabrice's tpm-factory goes in texmf-dist. If not, it goes in texmf. For texmf-dist: This tree (texmf-dist) is for the formats (plain, LaTeX, ConTeXt, and all the rest) and all the packages, together with their documentation and sources. Most everything used in day-to-day TeXing, except the binaries themselves. Another criteria: everything that can be classified automatically by Fabrice's tpm-factory goes in texmf-dist (or texmf-doc). If not, it goes in texmf. And yet another: texmf-dist should be distribution-independent, so that, in theory, it could be used by distributions other than TeX Live. So, no web2c/kpathsea-specific files. Thank you for all assistance, Jeffrey Drake
