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 -- luigi http://wiki.contextgarden.net/User:Luigi.scarso/Merry_Christmas_2007 .... it's new . it's powerful . it's luatex . http://www.luatex.org ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
