Hi Mojca,
You are correct about not removing « by hands » parts of a package… The reason for which I wen to that extremity was that I wanted absolutely to be sure to be able to run ConTeXt from TeXLive2020 in order to convince a few colleagues to experiment it with TeXShop.
If I type in the Terminal port installed 'tex*' the answer is: None of the specified ports are installed.
I guess this is because after having solved the problem I met with installing MacTeX2020, I had done: sudo port uninstall texlive-basic --follow-dependencies in order to uninstall ant TeX related package from Macports (I don't know how thos packages were installed, maybe when I tried to use asymptote, and since I couldn't use it from within ConTeXt I gave up…).
Yes, Asymptote definitely depends on texlive. But I guess that John is open for some "bribery" to make Asymptote work better with ConTeXt :) Last time I tested (maybe that was a few years ago) it was certainly possible to set context as the "backend engine". What's missing is better integration though (to end up with almost as good integration as metapost/metafun offers), and 3D with javascript mousing support never worked either. Mojca
