After unpacking, running the install scripts results in:

I assume this is because mtxrun is compiled for FreeBSD 14.0.
There were some troubles with our infrastructure which led Hans to
build the binaries himself without paying extra attention to
compatibility with older systems.
Can freebsd 14 work with older bins?
The previosu method of these hard coded version numbers was a pain as i
have to adapt different scripts and the websit to newer versions so and
i don't want that.
(We could put more bins in the installer for a platform and then let the
install.sh choose what bins to fetch but even then the question is how
far do we go back in time.)
You can find the binaries here:
https://build.contextgarden.net/dl/luametatex/
but I hope that Hans will rebuild the installer in order to make the
older systems functional again.
Other than that, building luametatex is relatively straightforward with CMake.
The sources can be found either inside ConTeXt or separately inside
https://github.com/contextgarden/luametatex
We could add a flag to the installer thaqt doesn't update the binaries
but intead (advices) to build the bins but it assumes Cmake and gcc to
be installed (we could cheat and use an existing cmake made make file).
