Hi,

the following example just prints »Hello World!«, without the square. What's wrong?

\startuseMPgraphic{test} fill fullsquare scaled 5cm; \stopuseMPgraphic

\starttext Hello World! \useMPgraphic{test} \stoptext

Hi,

Do you have all the formats generated? (mptopdf etc.)

No. Thanks for the hint (the logfile also told me, I know now). It works now. The problem was that I use a system-wide setup and the $TEXMFCACHE tree was not writable by the users. I now introduced the »chmod« line, see below. I'm not an expert. This is how I update my system. Is this correct? Or can the metafun format also be generated by root, so I can remove the world write access? # sh first-setup.sh --extras=all # . /usr/local/share/context/tex/setuptex # cp luatex-0.52 /usr/local/share/context/bin/luatex # cp luatex-0.52 /usr/local/share/context/tex/texmf-linux/bin/luatex # chmod -R a+rwx /usr/local/share/context/te/texmf-cache # luatools --generate # texhash # context --make # texexec --make $ context test.tex BTW: Can I achieve that the luatex binary will not be overwritten by first-setup.sh? Thanks for your replies. marco

Hi Mojca

You can most probably do export TEXMFCACHE=~/.context/texmf-cache as well (but then every user would have to generate his own database).

OK. That's true. But then I will end up in redundant data. Maybe export TEXMFCACHE=/var/tmp/context/texmf-cache works. Then I have no world write permission in the /usr tree. I'll check it next update.

Do you mean because of the old luatex binary (Hans seems to have been a bit busy in the meantime) in linux or is there some other reason?

No. The luatex binary is way too old for the »beta« tree. But it's not a real problem as it always can be updated manually.

./first-setup.sh --flags='[you need a pattern to ignore luatex binary when syncing]'

This looks nice as a workaround 'till 0.50 will face away. But how will this pattern look like? Kinda regex? The files in question are /usr/local/share/context/bin/luatex /usr/local/share/context/tex/texmf-linux/bin/luatex Thanks for your help and answers. marco

Hi Mojca,

It's updated now. Good to know I'll check next update.

Take a look at "man rsync" under "FILTER RULES". Thanks for the information. The man page is quite detailed.
