Hi all,

with the most recent Minimals (2014.02.14 17:07) building the Luatex Plain format no longer works:

$ mtxrun --script plain --make

...

mtx-plain | running command 'luatex --ini luatex-plain.tex \dump' This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.78.2 (TeX Live 2014/dev) (rev 4746) (INITEX) \write18 enabled.

(/home/phg/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/generic/context/luatex/luatex-plain.te x (/home/phg/context/tex/texmf/tex/plain/base/plain.tex Preloading the plain format: codes, registers, parameters, fonts, more fonts, ! Font \preloaded=manfnt not loadable: metric data not found or bad. <to be read again> \par l.468

?

Same when building manually. Can anyone reproduce this?

The context suite doesn’t include the manual fonts [1] which are required for the plain TeX format.

Yes, I’ve been using the tfm from texlive since. I’m unsure as to why the file was removed from the Context suite. Thanks for looking into this! Philipp
