Hello list members and ConTeXt gods,

this question is more technical than TeXnical but none the less ConTeXt 
releated. Today I am investigating if I can replace linux with OpenSolaris, so 
I am testing every, even exotic, software that I use on my linux box on 
OpenSolaris.

Looking into first-setup.sh there seem to be support for Solaris on Intel 
hardware called "sunos-intel". But if I try to install ConTeXt it doesn't work:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/context$ ./first-setup.sh 
/usr/bin/rsync
/usr/bin/ruby
receiving file list ... rsync: link_stat "/setup/sunos-intel/bin" (in minimals) 
failed: No such file or directory (2)
done

sent 4 bytes  received 9 bytes  26.00 bytes/sec
total size is 0  speedup is 0.00
rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c(1385) 
[receiver=2.6.9]
./first-setup.sh: line 68: mtxrun: not found


Next I tried to build the binaries myself by checking out the sources from 
Subversion:

svn co http://svn.contextgarden.net/minimals-src/build-binaries


And running ./build-binaries.sh afterwards. But this doesn't work either:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/context/build-binaries$ ./build-binaries.sh

-e Sorry, there have been some failures:
  - build of xetex on sunos-intel
  - build of luatex on sunos-intel
  - build of metapost on sunos-intel
-n No svn commit! Please press enter to continue! 


There are three executables named ctangle in the minimals directory:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/context/build-binaries$ find . -name ctangle
./src/current/pdftex/build/texk/web2c/ctangle
./src/current/luatex/build/texk/web2c/ctangle
./src/current/xetex/Work/texk/web2c/ctangle


How should I proceed from here? What is the status of Solaris support for 
context minimals?


Kind regards,
Michael Krauss
