LTMX crashes on OpenBSD 6.5 amd64
by Damien Thiriet 20 Oct '19

20 Oct '19

Hi, As I wrote yesterday, I have crashes on LTMX, openbsd6.5-amd64. LTMX version: ConTeXt ver: 2019.10.10 18:15 MKIV beta fmt: 2019.10.19 int: english/english I was not yet able to trace why does it crashes. The crashes is connected with buses, but I can hardly say anything more. Here are the last lines of a crashed-compilation log. Looks likes the file was compiled and then something got wrong. Maybe something gets wrong after some time of compilation. Bigger files crash after 10–12 pages. mkiv lua stats > result saved in file: sprawdziany5C.pdf, compresslevel 3, objectcompresslevel 1 mkiv lua stats > loaded patterns: en::1 fr::55, load time: 0.000 mkiv lua stats > loaded fonts: 2 files: latinmodern-math.otf, lmsans10-regular.otf mkiv lua stats > font engine: otf 3.109, afm 1.513, tfm 1.000, 5 instances, 1 shared in backend, 0 common vectors, 1 common hashes, load time 0.321 seconds mkiv lua stats > metapost: 0.005 seconds, loading: 0.122, execution: 0.004, n: 3, average: 0.043, instances: 1, luacalls: 223, memory: 3.265 M mkiv lua stats > graphics processing time: 0.005 seconds including tex, 1 processed images, 1 unique asked, 1 bad names mkiv lua stats > font embedding time: 0.014 seconds, 1 fonts mkiv lua stats > used platform: linux, type: unix, binary subtree: texmf-openbsd6.5-amd64 mkiv lua stats > used engine: luametatex version 2.0, functionality level 20190729, format id 977 mkiv lua stats > control sequences: 46949 of 65536 + 100000 mkiv lua stats > lua properties: engine: lua 5.4, used memory: 44 MB, ctx: 43 MB, max: 47 MB), hash chars: min(64,40), symbol mask: utf (τεχ) mkiv lua stats > runtime: 1.781 seconds, 10 processed pages, 10 shipped pages, 5.614 pages/second Bus error (core dumped) mtx-context | fatal error: return code: 35328 Shall I send the dump core somewhere?

LTMX crashes on OpenBSD 6.5 amd64
by Damien Thiriet 20 Oct '19

Hello, I don't think this is relevant, but lua 5.4 is not installed as a separate package (and nor is available as a package on OpenBSD 6.5). Greetings, Damien Thiriet

LTMX install on OpenBSD amd65 working
by Damien Thiriet 19 Oct '19

19 Oct '19

Hello, I am very pleased to inform that I was able to install luametatex on OpenBSD amd64 6.5. I fetched the install file on PRAGMA, followed the instructions and was able to compile a basic file with ltmx. I was also able to compile simple files for my pupils. Unfortunately, compilation fails with more complex files (presentations), I’ll describe this on another mail. Anyway, this is great, because OpenBSD 6.6 (released two days ago) ships texlive 2018, and having the \startxcolumn working will be really helpfull when designing key to symbols for my maps. I'm now looking forward for the OpenBSD 6.6 ltmx binaries. Thanks for all this great job, Damien Thiriet

issue with images in frames

Dear list, I have the following sample: \setupexternalfigures[location=default] \starttext \startxtable[option={stretch, width}] \startxrow \startxcell \dontleavehmode\dorecurse{100}{ \externalfigure[cow.pdf][scale=50] } \stopxcell \startxcell \input zapf \stopxcell \stopxrow \stopxtable \stoptext Some time ago, there were no difference between images and text remaining inside the frame. Have I hit a bug or what am I missing there? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Hi All, after a new First-setup from "https://www.contextgarden.net/First-setup" I added new fonts to "~/context/tex/texmf-local/fonts", then run: "mtxrun --generate" and got "resolvers | resolving | warning: no lua configuration files found" Please, what is to be done in this case? status_of_update.lua: ["date"]="2019-10-17 13:16:50", Best wishes, Rudolf

lmtx and Asana Math
by Otared Kavian 17 Oct '19

17 Oct '19

Hi Hans, Today I noticed that the OT font Asana math was absent from my installation of lmtx, that is from /context-osx-64/tex/texmf/fonts/opentype/public and that was the reason I kept obtaining in my documents different script fonts from the ones I have with mkiv. I copied the font into /context-osx-64/tex/texmf/fonts/opentype/public/Asana-Math and after erasing the cache and making the formats, everything works as expected now. So my question is: can this font be included in the distribution of lmtx so that one doesn't need to manually add it? Or should one install it somewhere else on one's machine? Thank you for everything, Best regards: Otared

Where is tex/texmf-context?
by Henri Menke 16 Oct '19

16 Oct '19

Dear list, Today I wanted to use ConTeXt MkIV instead of LMTX but when I ran context, I obtained the error mtxrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua' so I went to the installation directory /opt/context to check and noticed that tex/textmf-context was missing. I thought that obviously something must have went wrong with the last update, so I deleted the whole tree and ran the first-setup.sh again using sh ./first-setup.sh --context=latest --engine=luatex --modules=all --fonts=all but tex/texmf-context is still missing. Is any of the options I'm using for the install script broken? Cheers, Henri
