Has anyone had success running ConTeXt as packaged with Ubuntu? I can't get texexec --lua to find the ConTeXt format files, nor can I figure out how to generate the format files for luatex. XeTeX is similarly flaky. I'm running Ubuntu Hardy alpha in hopes of getting more up-to-date packages; is this a vain hope?
Which version of context and luatex does hardy ship with? In Gusty I had to set TEXMFCNF=/usr/share/texmf/web2c LUAINPUTS=$MYTEXMF/tex/context/base/:$MYTEXMF/scripts/context/lua where $MTEXMF is the directory where I instal the latest context. Both mkii and mkiv work fine with this setup. I have not tried xetex. Aditya
