Hello, today I updated lmtx and on simple $ context --version I get segfault (in the same time luametatex --version works fine). Running under gdb shows me that the problem might be in one of 'realloc' calls. The context from Context Suite (mkiv) works fine. P.S. I tested on two systems, both runs Archlinux x86_64. --- WBR, Vladimir Lomov -- Carelessly planned projects take three times longer to complete than expected.

I had the same issue and completely wiping the texmf-cache fixes it. @Vladimir: If you are using the luametatex package from AUR, then the texmf-cache is located at $HOME/.cache/luametatex. Aditya

No, I don't use the package from AUR, I simply do /usr/local/opt/lmtx $ sudo ./install.sh but I explicitly set TEXMFCACHE=$HOME/.cache/lmtx (for context suite I set it to $HOME/.cache/context-suite).
I'm receiving the super helpful error message:

It didn't occured to me that the problem may be with the cache, it would be helpfull if context/luametatex will give error message, something like "cache version mismatch" and exit.

That's strange. AFAIR, I splitted the caches because they were different and I checked this again: I deleted TEXMFCACHE directories (lmtx and context-suite ones), regenerated both using $ mtxrun --generate; context --make (using the right mtxrun, /usr/local/opt/context/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/mtxrun and /usr/local/opt/lmtx/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/mtxrun in my case) and checked the generated files.

Sep 11 15:29 fb39a92c95ceca857c3f2d0ee48a2ad3.luc -------------------------------------- 8< -------------------------------------- The files under 'formats' are "safe" because they are in different directories but files in 'trees' not only have identical names but also differ in sizes. I don't know why both caches have the same directory under 'luatex-cache', I thought it is related to a directory where mtxrun/context installed but seems I'm wrong. To be sure that I use correct "package"/"distribution" I often run commands $ context --version and get for ConTeXt Suite: mtx-context | ConTeXt Process Management 1.03 mtx-context | mtx-context | main context file: /usr/local/opt/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/context.mkiv mtx-context | current version: 2019.09.09 13:44 mtx-context | main context file: /usr/local/opt/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/context.mkxl mtx-context | current version: 2019.09.09 13:44 and for luametatex: mtx-context | ConTeXt Process Management 1.03 mtx-context | mtx-context | main context file: /usr/local/opt/lmtx/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/context.mkiv mtx-context | current version: 2019.07.24 11:31 mtx-context | main context file: /usr/local/opt/lmtx/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/context.mkxl mtx-context | current version: 2019.09.09 13:55 so I'm sure that this is different "context"s (I'm curious why current version of mkiv files are different but I suppose it is related to other "system" files of context). Is it "safe" to simply run always $ mtxrun --generate; context --make after each context/lmtx update? May be one should add there commands in 'install.sh'?
so what does the tikz that fails look like (mwe)
I didn't say anything about tikz (I prefer metapost or asymptote actually).

Got it, so as lmtx has "experimental" status, one should pay more attention, be prepared to run manually 'mtxrun --generate ; context --make', ok with me. Thank you Hans for clarification.

actually these *.luc files should be *.lud files so I need to check that
That make sense, lua, (lub), luc, lud but even lua files are different or do you mean that luc/lud are generated (compiled) from lua and then contex don't read them only luc/lud?

Indeed. These are startup related files.
That make sense, lua, (lub), luc, lud but even lua files are different or do you mean that luc/lud are generated (compiled) from lua and then contex don't read them only luc/lud? The lua files are probably not that different but indeed the other ones are bytecode files and normally read (with the lua files as fallbacks in case of a failure) which is more efficient (a =lua, c = luatex bytecode (5.3), b = luajit bytecode (hybrid 5.1 / 5.2), d = luametatex bytecode (5.4). At some point the jit variant might be dropped and in the long run we might only have luametatex.

Hello, today I updated lmtx and on simple

I get segfault (in the same time luametatex --version works fine). Running under gdb shows me that the problem might be in one of 'realloc' calls.
The context from Context Suite (mkiv) works fine.
P.S. I tested on two systems, both runs Archlinux x86_64. can you completely wipe the texmf-cache directory and then run
mtxrun --generate context --make
(there is a change in bytecode that gets not automatically noticed that can give that crash)
I had the same issue and completely wiping the texmf-cache fixes it.
@Vladimir: If you are using the luametatex package from AUR, then the texmf-cache is located at $HOME/.cache/luametatex.
I'm receiving the super helpful error message:
! error (lua): function call: no
there is not much context to present there as it means that deep down a bad function token is expanded, something under control of the macro package, which then has/is messed up
Maybe some sort of cache versioning is in order to at least give a better error.
for now, adding \ifdefined\pdfsavepos\else \let\pdfsavepos \savepos \let\pdflastxpos\lastxpos \let\pdflastypos\lastypos \fi to cont-new.mkiv seems to work ok Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Yes, that "fixed" the problem, thank you.
