Hi, I uploaded a new version of lmtx (and mkiv). We're still in the process of migrating code from mkiv to lmtx (using new features). Anyway, I also uploaded a few more (preliminary) 'manuals' http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/lowlevel-macros.pdf http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/lowlevel-security.pdf http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/lowlevel-conditionals.pdf http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/lowlevel-boxes.pdf but some is work in progress. It shows a bit how things evolve(d) and what ws and i are dealing with now. More (details) in due time.

Hans, many thanks for the new upload. As I reported before, I’m afraid I’m not able to update LMTX unless I remove the three tex/texmf-*.tma files (in both Windows and Linux). Other users have reported that this is the only method to get the update done. But this downloads all the files, overloading your servers (after all, this isn’t an update, just a complete install over an already installed system). This used to work before LMTX from 2020.09.20. In Linux, tex/install.sh from both versions (2020.11.17 and 2020.11.15) are exactly the same. I used a diff tool to allow no error. What are we doing wrong that prevents the update of the installation? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

What are we doing wrong that prevents the update of the installation? I don't know. Nothing really changed in the installer.

It may be something unrelated, but I don’t know why the resolver databases (I assume tex/texmf-*.tma) aren’t detected by the installer (or it considers them outdated). The second cuestion is that current is set to %S (but probably this is only about not showing the right version). resolvers | resolving | warning: no lua configuration files found resolvers | resolving | no texmf paths are defined (using TEXMF) resolvers | resolving | mtxrun | the resolver databases are not present or outdated mtx-install | server : lmtx.pragma-ade.com mtx-install | instance : install-lmtx mtx-install | platform : linux-64 mtx-install | system : unix mtx-install | updating tex/texmf, 1541 files mtx-install | updating tex/texmf-context, 3757 files mtx-install | updating tex/texmf-linux-64, 6 files mtx-install | skipping tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/context mtx-install | skipping tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/mtxrun mtx-install | current : %S mtx-install | target : true mtx-install | removing : mtxrun mtx-install | removing : context mtx-install | linked : mtxrun mtx-install | linked : context Just in case it might help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

Just in case it might help, it looks like lua can't load a file (no problem loading it in editors) so i need to hack around it (maybe something lua 5.4 that i need to investigate)
