Re: performing update(s)
New to conTeXt, have not performed a specific update prior to this.
My conTeXt installation is part of TeXlive-2023 (under Linux OS). Will
the updates to ConTeXt be handled by tlmgr ?
Basically tex live is the yearly snapshot. I actually dont' know the
rules for updating texlive but there are definitely updates. But as much
relates there (like engines shared between macro packages) it can be
that only macros get updated and not engines (also relates to multiple
platforms) so fundamental changes to luatex as engine .. hard to predict.
But you can just install the lmtx installation alongside (it's small
compared to tex live) and have the best of both worlds. The lmtx
installation also has mkiv. It also comes with the fonts that match what
we expect in context (as fonts get updated or changed).
