I don't have the answer, but I can tell you how I'm actually using
context and luatex.
First , i don't install anything fromt ubuntu about TeX:
I only use last TeXLive under /opt/texlive
I keep a mkii version of context here, and i have update with last
pdftex and metapost.
Second, for mkiv I always use new context files from pragma; I
compile last metapost and luatex and put all stuff under
/opt/luatex
I feel good with this, because i can change/update distro without
pain, and manage stuffs under /opt is also easy.
I admit that this is not a 'debian' or ubunto way, but i use linux
from 0.99 kernel,
and the only things i have found stable is filesystem hierarchy
