Dear ntg-context@ntg.nl mailto:ntg-context@ntg.nl:
I am new to ConTeXt, so if this is not a very good question, please accept my apologies in advance. I first tried sending this message to the help address at contextgarden.net http://contextgarden.net/, and the reply I received suggested that this list would be the more appropriate venue.
I am trying to install ConTeXt on my Mac, and am following the StandAlone ConTeXt instructions on the page:
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Mac_Installation#Installing_MacTeX http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Mac_Installation#Installing_MacTeX
I installed MacTeX without problem, and then tried to follow the instructions for Standalone ConTeXt. At the end of Section 3.2 on that page, when I tried to execute the command:
sh ./first-setup.sh --modules=all --engine=luatex
it ran for a minute or so, but ultimately gave me the error message copied below.
This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.85.0 (TeX Live 2016/dev) (rev 5550) (INITEX) system commands enabled. (/sw/share/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/cont-en.mkiv (/sw/share/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/context.mkiv (/sw/share/texmf-dist/tex/context/base/syst-ini.mkiv ! Undefined control sequence. l.842 \pdfminorversion \plusfive ?
It seems that I am missing some kind of software prerequisite, but I am really not sure. Any suggestions you might have for getting around this problem would be very much appreciated.
Sincerely, Bruce Boghosian
