minimal update problem

Hi,

I am using context minimal on a linux box. After I created a directory named
"texmf-local" under $TEXMFROOT and run command:

ctxtools --updatecontext

All downloaded files went to texmf-local and no update to the folder
texmf-context. I do not like this way of updating, because I keep personal
data/file in texmf-local. Can anybody tell me how to avoid such problem?

While using minimals, do not update using ctxtools --updatecontext. Rather 
rerun the first-setup.sh script again.
