...is still not working for me.
For those of you who have used mkiv under Ubuntu (or Debian, I
suppose), had it worked "out of the box" or is "some assembly
required"?

Can you use Debian sid repositories for Hardy? If so, Norbert Preining provides deb packages for context, texlive, luatex, and tex-gyre, which are fairly up-to-date, and may be the easiest way to get a fully working mkiv. I use Gusty and have a almost fully working mkiv. I compiled luatex on my own, and had to set TEXMFCNF and LUAINPUTS variables in my shell.

As I understand it, Dr Preining is the Debian maintainer of the context, luatex, &c. packages, and so the .debs on his website are previews of the official packages. I'd installed and uninstalled his packages trying to make things work, but only the install I did today actually produced PDF output from "texexec --luatex hello.tex". I did, however need to generate the format files; Norbert, can you please include that in the ConTeXt package set-up? (As an aside, texlive-xetex depends on a version of libpoppler that my Ubuntu system doesn't yet have.) > I use Gusty and have a almost fully working mkiv.

I am using Debian packages. It works but as Aditya already said, you have to export at least those two variables: TEXMFCNF and TEXMFCACHE. So something like : $ export TEXMFCNF=/usr/share/texmf/web2c $ cd ~; mkdir .texmf-cache $ export TEXMFCACHE=~/.texmf-cache $ luatools --generate $ texexec --lua --make --all and then $ texexec --luatex test.tex should work. But (from your mails) you do not seem to have set the environment variables correctly.

That put me on the right track: chesky@maxwell:~$ kpsewhich --expand-var '$TEXMFCNF' /usr/share/texmf/web2c:/usr/local/share/texmf/web2c chesky@maxwell:~$ luatools --generate LuaTools | skipping /usr/share/texmf/web2c:/usr/local/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf LuaTools | LuaTools | runtime: 0.005 seconds chesky@maxwell:~$ export TEXMFCNF=/usr/share/texmf/web2c chesky@maxwell:~$ luatools --generate LuaTools | loading /usr/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf <many lines of output deleted> ...And now mkiv works! So do I report as a Debian/Ubuntu package bug that TEXMFCNF is set with multiple directories, or as a luatools bug that it can't handle a multiple path? --Joel ___________________________________________________________________________________ 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 ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 16+ messages in thread
