Dear Taco and list,
I have a problem (with the latest minimals) sorting bibtex entries:
Consider the following example:
% bibbug.tex
\usemodule[bib]
\setuppublications[
       sorttype=bbl,
]
\setupbibtex[
       database=mp,
]
\starttext
See~\cite{resi3,resi4} and also~\cite{resi2,resi1}.
\placepublications[criterium=all]
\stoptext
% end of bibbug.tex
I get an eror:
! LuaTeX error ...TeXt/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/bibl-tra.lua:83:
attempt to compare two nil values
stack traceback:
       ...TeXt/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/bibl-tra.lua:83: in

       [C]: in function 'sort'
       ...TeXt/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/bibl-tra.lua:93: in function 'flush'

\typesetpubslist ...hacks.flush("\@@pbsorttype ")}
                                                 \doendoflist
\dodoplacepublications ...sttrue \typesetpubslist
                                                 \inpublistfalse \endgroup ...
l.14 \placepublications[criterium=all]
If I uncomment the sorttype=bbl line, it compiles.
Attached is the tex file, the log file, and my bib file.
Best regards, Mikael
Nobody has an idea about this sorting problem? Hans?
