Partly to test Norbert's TeXLive 2013 packages for Debian, I just
installed the whole set of packages, which include Context MkIV
2013.04.20. With it I get an error not present with the older (2012)
format, namely that the internal conversion of mps files to pdf fails.
I don't know whether it is a Debian-specific problem or shared with
upstream, hence I am also sending this to dev-context.
Here's the minimal example (mytest.tex):
\enabletrackers[graphics.conversion]
\starttext
\externalfigure[fig/whole-tree.1]
\stoptext
(You'll need an actual mps file of that name to get the error below.)
Then running it with
$ context --trackers=list mytest
produces the error
graphics > inclusion > no converter for 'mps' to 'pdf'
[MP to PDF]
! LuaTeX error [string "\directlua "]:1: attempt to index field 'mptopdf' (a nil value)
Here's the full log:
