Hi Luigi,
I got ConTeXt installed and running, but the install was very choppy.
FYI the script you gave me had several problems, which I'll detail here.
1) Throughout you want
freefont-ttf-20120503
rather than
freefont-src-20120503
2) This line has a stray backslash character
bash /first-setup.sh --modules=simplefonts
3) The command
mtxrun --script font --reload
searches a bunch of directories for fonts, but not the directory
texmf-project/fonts/
My work-around was just to copy the *.ttf files to
texmf-fonts/
and then re-do the mtxrun line.
4) You might want to explain that the
source /opt/luatex/standalone-new/tex/setuptex
has to be done once at the start of each session, or else bad things happen.
5) Generally it would be good to dilineate what should be done as root,
and where normal user stuff starts.
Thanks!
