Sorry, my explanation of what I am trying to achieve was a bit too terse.
Thank-you for the explanation - that's much clearer.
I've experimented a bit with Docker and I've managed to get a stand-alone LMTX install to work under a 32-bit Alpine Linux that has had the glibc library added. This should - fingers crossed - work in iSH.
That's great news! I'll try it asap and report back. Thanks for looking into it. Anyway, for Hans and Mojca: I confirm that I was not able to run ConTeXt from the texlive package (TeX Live 2020) of Alpine Linux 3.12 (x86_64). I get the error in my original post to this thread, which I could not solve with the suggested fixes. If other can reproduce it, maybe it's worth reporting upstream to Alpine developers. I can install ConTeXt LMTX just fine in Alpine x86_64, however! Nicola
