Hi all,
Any context users using arch linux out there?
I have packaged context-minimals for arch linux. It is basically the
first-setup.sh script simplified for arch linux (no platform checking,
etc). I also modified the setuptex script to make sure it works in a
multiuser environment (basically setting TEXMFCACHE to $HOME/texmf-cache).
The PKGBUILD is available at
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=30398
To install packages from AUR, you need to install yaourt
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Yaourt
and then you can install context using
yaourt -S context-minimals-git
(the -git extension is just to coax yaourt to keep the downloaded files,
so that rsync makes sense).
It installs the minimals at /opt/context-minimals
Aditya

That is great! Thank you for the work. I will try it when I have time. A
package surely will make it easier for beginners to get started.
cheers
