When \externalfigure could not find the file it used to graciously place a rectangle kindly telling the user that the file has not been found. But now, however, it seems the default in this case is a crash. Very annoying in comparison with the earlier behaviour. I might make a mistake, but the MWE is as simple as can be. The filename is test.jpeg, then this runs ok: \starttext \externalfigure[test.jpeg][] \stoptext But this crashes, see the log: \starttext \externalfigure[test.jpg][] \stoptext yours sincerely dr.

Can you update your ConTeXt installation and check if the error remains, I tries to your example on my machine (Windows 11) and wasn't able to reproduce the problem. Wolfgang

I get the same error on linux. I am using 2023.09.26 which appears to be the latest version available for linux. The issue is that \expandeddetokenize used in the definition of grph_include_replacement is not defined. A simple \def\expandeddetokenize{\relax} fixes the error, but clearly that is not a proper solution. Aditya
