Hi,

Would you consider supporting Solaris 11 on SPARC?

Alternatively if you could provide documentation how to build Context on "SunOS sun4v" hardware would also be beneficial.

I have compiled luametatex, but getting below error when trying to create cache and not sure if this is a compatibility issue.

bin/custom# ./mtxrun --generate
startup error : no format file given, quitting

You can create a tex tree with:

   http://lmtx.pragma-ade.nl/install-lmtx/installation.pdf
   http://lmtx.pragma-ade.nl/install-lmtx/texmf.zip
   http://lmtx.pragma-ade.nl/install-lmtx/texmf-context.zip

and then populate

   /tex/texmf-solaris/bin

and proceed as described in the manual. Or you can install on another 
machine and replace the bins there by yours.

Basically 'support' means a tree where the binary resorts,

Hans
