[NTG-context] Re: New upload doesn't work on macOS 10.13.6

Hi Ralf I keep TeX Live on my Mac. It’s a great fall-back when I have new version surprises with ConTeXt. tug.org/mactex/ TeX Live has a friendly installer. Updates are easy with TeX Live Utility. TeX Live has a version of ConTeXt from last May, and it’s quite a good version, in my opinion. (ConTeXt ver: 2023.05.05 18:36 LMTX fmt: 2023.12.18) If you need any LaTeX stuff for some reason, it’s all there in TeX Live. Gavin

Hi list,

after having tried to update with the new upload, ConTEXt doesn't run anymore.

According to the output the new version requires a more recent system. I still use macOS 10.13.6 (High Sierra).

This is what I get:

Trying to install again, I get:

======================

What can I do?

Do I have to reinstall an older version? How can I do this?

Desperately,
