In ord= er to be able to use MkIV and Luatex I started, as a MacTeX-user, by updati= ng ConTeXt (MacTeX: You need to update ConTeX= t first.), following instructions on

The co= mmand as given (copied and pasted in terminal) does not work: everything fa= ils: Operation not permitted. Redoing it as Sudo does the job. But then: = =93luatools --generate=94=A0 gives: -bash: /usr/texbin/luatools: Permission= denied, =93sudo luatools --generate=94 gives =93luatools: command not foun= d=94. So I cd-ed to /usr/texbin, gave the command =93sudo chmod 755 luatool= s=94 and then =93luatools --generate=94 and got:


LuaToo= ls | error unable to identify cnf file

LuaToo= ls | no cnf files found (TEXMFCNF may not be set/known)

LuaToo= ls |=A0

LuaToo= ls | runtime: 0.002 seconds


But wo= rst of all is that after all this I could not use MkII any more: Older file= s that before updating had been nicely typeset couldn=92t be processed anym= ore:=A0 permission denied. I tried =93sudo chmod 755=94 on texexec and on t= exmfstart but that did not help.

So in = the end I reinstalled MacTeX 2008 and I was back at where I started.

Just f= or the sake of completeness, I use an Intel iMac under OSX 10.5.6.
