Hi, I ran into trouble with caches. First I updated the new binaries and they compiled fine under OpenBSD6.6-amd64. Then I uploaded some binaries Hans asked me to test, moved this luametatex to /usr/local/context/tex/texmf-openbsd6.6-amd64/bin/, deleted files inside /usr/local/context/tex/texmf-cache (but not texmf-cache itself, since I understand whipe as cleaning inside it) and ran mtx-run --generate then context --auto. When I tried afterwards to compile those new binaries, I get this error This is LuaMetaTeX, Version 2.01.0 resolvers > caches > fatal error: there is no valid writable cache path defined Running mtx-run --generate on my user account did not solve the problem. I certainly did something wrong. I tried to revert to the standard lmtx binaries running install.sh but those errors are still here. Regards, Damien Thiriet

Running mtx-run --generate on my user account did not solve the problem. I certainly did something wrong. I tried to revert to the standard lmtx binaries running install.sh but those errors are still here.
