Hello Hans,

Yes, the Linux install fails as well. I have just tried another. The
output of context --make is attached.

During the install the ascii *.lua files in the following directory --
initially from context-linux-64.zip-- are overwritten by what look
like binaries:

/path/to/lmtx/bin:
  total used in directory 3444 available 236814588
  drwx------ 2 rbm49 rbm49    4096 Mar  2  2019 .
  drwx------ 4 rbm49 rbm49    4096 Dec  9 06:59 ..
  -rw------- 1 rbm49 rbm49   16432 Dec  9 06:59 mtx-install.lua
  -rwx------ 1 rbm49 rbm49 2786296 Dec  9 06:59 mtxrun
  -rw------- 1 rbm49 rbm49  696620 Dec  9 06:59 mtxrun.lua

And at the end of the install the following two files also seem to be
binaries (see "no valid format" message in attached log):

/path/to/lmtx/tex/texmf/web2c:
  total used in directory 28 available 236977668
  drwx------ 2 rbm49 rbm49 4096 Dec  9 06:58 .
  drwx------ 6 rbm49 rbm49 4096 Dec  9 06:58 ..
  -rw------- 1 rbm49 rbm49 7500 Dec  9 06:58 texmf.cnf
  -rw------- 1 rbm49 rbm49 8214 Dec  9 06:58 texmfcnf.lua


Best, Richard

so linux install fails too?
