ConTeXt minimals: Issue with file.iswritable and 'Cg'
I use contextgarden.net/minimals/ and the following problems showed up after an update. a) file.iswritable(cachepath) failed. The directory is writable for the user but not for others. I have not debugged why it failed. Affected file: tex/texmf-linux/bin/luatools b) bin/mtxrun failed at line 5013: Somehow my lua(tex) did not digest the Cg: protocol = Cg(V("letters"),"protocol") * P("://") + Cg(Cc(nil),"protocol"), tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/mtxrun:5013: attempt to call local 'Cg' (a nil value) Any ideas? (I removed the readable check as work around and changed the Cg to P as quick work around.) Tobias PS: I use Fedora 6, which is the dated but centrally installed Linux here.

Neither problem happens here, so I suspect that your 'texlua' is still an older version (didn't get updated somehow). What does 'texlua --version' output? Best wishes, Taco

Good point: context/tex/texmf-linux/bin/luatex missed an executable bit -- and surprisingly there is a /usr/local/TeX/bin/i386-linux/texlua "build 915, created on 20071128T092554Z", which gets picked up instead. The problem is that running sh first-setup.sh --extras="t-letter,t-mathsets,t-bib" causes an rsync, which removes the executable bit and thus "./bin/mtx-update.lua --update" fails again. Could someone fix the executable bit at rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/..../bin/* ? Thanks for the suggestion to check the texlua version. Tobias

Thanks for the suggestion to check the texlua version. Yes, I have seen it this night.

If it doesn't get fixed after updating, please let me know. (This time Hans sent me the binaries via email ... and I forgot to make them executable. Usually they get committed from the same machine where they are compiled, so this has never been a problem so far.) Mojca

it means that there is no lpeg.Cg and indeed that is a pretty old luatex then Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
