My first guess is that it's because Hans uploaded a beta that needs a not-yet-beta LuaTeX that's not available in minimals. (Another possibility is mismatch in luatools version.) Hans, what about misusing "alpha" for such cases when one needs some not-yet-released luatex? As a remedy, you can try to run ./first-setup.sh --context=current but I probably need to fix luatools and mtxrun symlinks. I need to go now, but I'll inspect in the evening. I have created "experimental" branch for such cases, but I cannot enable it until Patrick changes the server (that should happer rather soon). Mojca
Thanks, Mojca, I will revert to an older version in the meantime. (I was testing my revised procedure for updating the Mac minimals--- thanks for your suggestions by the way---which I will post soon.) Cheers, Alan On Oct 18, 2008, at 07;43,28 , Mojca Miklavec wrote:

i wanted to do that but then i'd already been generating beta's for days on my machine for taco and idris to test which means that in my to be synced web tree there already would be a beta (and not the best one) 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
