Minimals/MTXrun: 32-bit system with 64-bit kernel: `MTXrun | no 'texmf-linux-64'`
Dear ConTeXt folks, I am running a 32-bit system with a 64-bit kernel. So relying on uname -m to determine the architecture leads to problems [1]. So I do `cpu = "i686` manually in `first-setup.sh` but I still do get the the following error message. sent 1145 bytes received 8908331 bytes 774737.04 bytes/sec total size is 31230200 speedup is 3.51 MTXrun | mtx update: updating mtxrun for linux: rsync -tgo --chmod=a+x /opt/context/tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/mtxrun.lua /opt/context/tex/texmf-linux/bin/mtxrun MTXrun | run: rsync -tgo --chmod=a+x /opt/context/tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/mtxrun.lua /opt/context/tex/texmf-linux/bin/mtxrun → MTXrun | no 'texmf-linux-64' under tree /opt/context/tex When you want to use context, you need to initialize the tree by typing: . /opt/context/tex/setuptex `first-setup.sh` executes the following command # download or update the distribution # you may remove the --context=beta switch if you want to use "current" mtxrun --verbose --script ./bin/mtx-update.lua --update --make --force --engine=all --context=beta --platform=$platform --texroot=$PWD/tex $@ but `mtxrun` or `mtx-update.lua` does not seem to honor the option `--platform` all the way.

You could try setting HOSTTYPE to anything other than ppc or x86_64. Aditya

Thank you for that hint. (It looks like I overlooked that `platform` is used beforehand to set `MTX_PLATFORM` and `os.platform`. So `--platform` does not seem to be honored all the way.)

Did you modify setuptex to set the correct value for $TEXMFOS and $PATH.

yes, or you can just add the right bin path to your path environment variable and not use setuptex at all ----------------------------------------------------------------- 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------

I am aware of that. At the moment it is a bit nasty since --platform is not favoured (the switch was meant to allow installing minimals for multiple platforms at the same time, but that one should be called --platforms) and somehow mtxrun has its own ideas about which platform it is running on (I would like to get rid of that dependency completely one day). The easiest thing for "setuptex" is to either rename the file (so that your changes won't be lost next time) or to just change the PATH (you don't really have to run setuptex as it doesn't do anything else but set the path to binaries). However I'm aware that it already crashes earlier. 1.) Do you have any idea if there is some way to figure out that your machine is not able to run 64-bit binaries? (we had exactly the same problem on the old contextgarden and it is something common on macs) 2.) Since luatex does architecture guessing anyway ... it would be really great if luatex knew whether it was compiled for 32-bit or 64-bit or ppc or ... Mojca
