Some further digging brings to ligt that my metapost files cannot be found by the luatex run. The following is hown in the log: mplib : initializing instance 'metafun' using format 'metafun' mplib : loading 'metafun.mp' (experimental metapost version two) mplib > mp terminal: ! I can't open file `hvdm'. <*> ...core : input mp-core.mp ; fi ; ;\input hvdm def init_pens = pickup pe... Please type another input file name Now that is strange, because looking into the ls-R in texmf-local I see them present: ./tex/context/user/metapost: .DS_Store .svn hvdm.mp mygraph.mp So, why is hvdm.mp not found? Other files mentioned in ls-R, for example: ./tex/context/user/context-user: hvdm-cas.tex hvdm-dvd.tex etcetera, are indeed found. By the way, why are all the .svn (subversion) directories included in ls-R? Cannot .svn/* be excluded? Hans van der Meer On 31 jan 2011, at 14:08, Hans van der Meer wrote:

I just started the conversion of my presentation sheets to ConTeXt mkIV. As could be expected, some inconsistencies will turn up. However this one escapes me. What I am missing that \startMPgraphic results in ! Undefined control sequence.

I thought that installing the minimals of ConTeXt-beta also installed the metafun module. Or has this one macro been deprecated?
