Are you sure this is not just a typo, maybe with upper/lowercase?

Good thought, but... Given that the very same source file works with the context found in TL2024, this seems unlikely. Unless somehow the TL2024 context (and the context in the stand-alone context distribution) intuits filename errors like that. Also, copying and pasting from my .tex file onto the end of an ls -l command gives me the file information. So I don't think so.
Since ConTeXt doesn’t rely on external libraries, I think we can exclude a difference in e.g. libjpeg between different Linux distributions.
I did notice that 'ldd .../luametatex' showed no apparently-relevant .so libraries. However, I did wonder whether building it on my system pulled in any .a libraries, which ldd wouldn't show.
A difference between GUIs or window managers is really improbable, as apparently a difference in PDF viewers.
I agree. Everything here is pointing to my context program. Hercule Poirot is never around when I need him. Jim
