Today, I updated my ConTeXt standalone but after that, if I ran `context' it would give these message:

Is this suggesting that the new beta is broken? If not, how can I solve this problem? I like ConTeXt very much!

you have to make sure you have the latest ... there has been a change in texlive: no texmf but texmf-dist and the engines have the paths mentioned above hardcoded (just ignore the weird paths) .. now, as the garden but also existing installations use texmf this breaks virtually all installations: the hardcoded paths in the engines have no 'texmf' however, the good news is that mojca made sure that texmf is back in the low leven hard coded engine spec but it may take a day or so for binaries that were made without it to get updated (in context we could use a different more compact spec but then users who have used the weird paths in the past will have the problem that their adapted cnf files are not found) Hans -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
