Hi Hans, hi list, some questions for the minimals, used the texlive version up to now and then found out that the 2k9 version of texlive has problems using context mkii and mkiv. so now I will start to use context from the minimals. so would be nice to have some infos before starting. Is the howto in the contextgarden-wiki still up to date or something needed to be changed in there? Is the repository for the minimals only available via rsync or as git too? And if there is no git version available is it planed to get a git repo, or can one simply add one, as I would write an ebuild for funtoo afterwards it would be easier for me to sync it that way, because it is faster and only updates changes, compared to rsync. If wished I could first make my github-account available for a git repo. Greetings Martin 'golodhrim' Scholz

rsync also updates only changes

Hi Hans, thanks for your info, so I have the opinion that the git is much faster and if contextgarden has one, is it possible to add a git for the minimals there or who does one have to ask for it. Thanks for the fast reply Martin

Hi Hans, Hi Mojca, hi list, finished today an ebuild for funtoo, should also work under gentoo if interested for an add to the contextgarden wiki let me know. And Mojca, would be nice to get direct contact to you for some infos concerning the build process of context-minimals. Just reply to my mail- address from which I post. Greetings Martin 'golodhrim' Scholz

I'm sorry. I'm here and I'm reading, it's just that I didn't yet figure out what to reply to you about git. About the speed of git: it's indeed very fast, but you need to bear in mind that you would need to download the whole archive of every single luatex binary version (OK, compressed, but still). If we start shipping the minimals as git repository (but then we would ship it as a whole) it would be best to just put a cron job on contextgarden.net that would update on regular bases. Volunteer? Mojca PS: rsync also updates "only changed files" which was still better than updating the whole zip, though it does update the whole files, not just the differences between files. It also has an advantage that one would then easily switch back in time locally if something goes wrong.
Hi list, here is the directory for ebuilds written for funtoo to support context- minimals and the dstroke fonts that were missing in my eyes in the minimals. Take a look if interested at http://github.com/golodhrim/foo-golodhrim/ tree/master/app-text/ Greetings Martin 'golodhrim' Scholz
Hi together unfortunately there are the doublestroke fonts missing in the context- minimals. Will bring up an ebuild by today if everything works right. so if somebody likes some help by doing so, I might explain what I did or will make the ebuild available in github. Greetings Martin 'golodhrim' Scholz

And later that afternoon I wrote a short HowTo on howto setup and use the overlay for his own purpose in an funtoo environment.

If I understand correctly, the context-dstroke ebuild is just downloading the doublestroke font http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/doublestroke/ and installing it in a proper TDS structure. This is a small font, so I think that it is OK to just add this to the minimals. Mojca, what do you think? Aditya

Hi Aditya, right, the ebuild for dstroke is just a load the font and copy it to the appropriate directorys... If it is included in a later version of context- minimals it would be nice to get informed about it, so I can can delete the usage of the ebuild for dstroke... Martin 'golodhrim' Scholz

That's fine with me. Just a question (I didn't check yet): is the font supported in ConTeXt core? Mojca

Hi Mojca, the font is not available in ConTeXt, but it is supported, you only need to activate it in the Document as described at http:// wiki.contextgarden.net/Doublestroke so it is usable, but not included and I think the only nice way to get the Doublestroked fonts done... Greetings Martin
