But the metric file ConTeXt knows that font by (fmvr8x) was deleted from TeXLive, because the package (marvosym) that it belongs to has been updated, and it switched to a new name for the metric file.
Yup. Marvosym was updated on CTAN on 2006-05-11, so it was time to update it.
It is very likely they did not change *just* the name, but updated the base font file as well, so simple name remapping probably will not work
Yup, from marvodoc.tex: \item[2006-05-11] Version 2.1: Renamed Rightarrow macro to MVRightarrow. New TeX name for font (umvs). Rewrote style file. Added fd file.
It is bad luck that the last-minute update to marvosym in texlive breaks the marvosym support in context, but there is no way to fix that any more.
Sorry for that, but in fact I didn't think about that ConTeXt us the old
marvosym interface? So it could have been broken since quite some time
if people upgraded the marvosym from CTAN.
Best wishes
