Many thanks for this explanation of what works now, Mocja. I am going to move my luatex problem (which you mention below) back to its original thread. (If only because it is really nice to tie off the LM problem and call it solved.). Alan On Feb 25, 2009, at 08;23,43 , Mojca Miklavec wrote:

I have run the ./first-setup.sh without the switch --context=beta and I still get what I had before ConTeXt ver: 2009.01.18 14:39 MKII fmt: 2009.2.23 int: english/ english a beta version (I gather) which in any case does not work.
If you remove --context=beta you should (at least in theory) get the "current". At the moment this exceptionally doesn't correspond with the "current" version on Pragma because what's in current doesn't work with the latest released luatex beta.
Also, --context=beta exceptionally doesn't correspond to the true beta from pragma, because the current beta doesn't work with the latest released luatex beta.
If you want to go back in time with ConTeXt, you can use --context=yyyy.mm.dd (see http://minimals.contextgarden.net/current/context/).
You can also use --context=alpha or --context=experimental, but we don't have all the needed binaries set up, so in that case you probably need to compile luatex yourself (I'll try to fix that once I get back home).
alpha = alpha from Pragma if one is available, else beta, else current (if there's no beta)
Apparently there is no easy way to go back. So what about going forward? When will the ConTeXt minimals accessible by ./first-setup.sh be updated?
current: whenever Hans releases a new current beta: whenever the next luatex beta will be released alpha, experimental: updated hourly, but don't work out of the box without using your own luatex
A subsidiary worry. By moving the contents of my texmf folder into /ContextMinimals/tex/texmf-project/ I now get duplicate pattern error messages (lang-agr.pat is the culprit) when the shell script runs. But there is only one lang-agr.pat file in ConTeXtMinimals, so what does this mean? (There is no error message if I remove texmf-project before running the script.)
Totally weird. Taco? Hans?
