I hope it’s again only me being stupid, but when I try to update my LMTX installation or make a new one, the install script always fails with the above warning.


~/lmtx_2021-09-19 $ . install.sh

If you want to run ConTeXt everywhere, you need to adapt the path, like:

  export PATH=/Users/hraban/lmtx_2021-09-19/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin:$PATH

If you run from an editor you can specify the full path to mtxrun:

  /Users/hraban/lmtx_2021-09-19/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin/mtxrun --autogenerate --script context --autopdf ...

The following settings were used:

  server   : lmtx.contextgarden.net,lmtx.pragma-ade.com,lmtx.pragma-ade.nl
  instance : install-lmtx
  extras   : 
  ownpath  : /Users/hraban/lmtx_2021-09-19
  platform : osx-64


It looks like the root path is wrongly assumed, since I run the script from ~/lmtx_2021-09-19, not just ~

TEXROOT is set to /Users/hraban/lmtx/tex (my previous installation), but get the same messages if I run the script there.

Same behavior with osx-64 and linux-64.

Same here on Windows 10 x64:
