conary should build out of the box, with plain contexts. in the past we
were building conary against old groups, so that updates/migrations, worked
flawlessly from setups with oldish glibc releases but that has been worked
on strictly by runtime deps/reqs mangling.

meanwhile latest conary=@fl:2-devel is not building... in the past i was
being reverting 3 upstream commits  - '757a858', '2c2ca3e', 'bfbd22a'
because with them applied i wasn't been able to get rmake to work at all
[rmake was complaining about not being able to find 'suitable contexts' on
startup] . *If* we take those reverts off conary would, naturally, build
and work nicelly but rmake shouldn't work, as is,  on any box with that
conary on the rmake host. Michael, can you confirm that this is is still an
issue or that it has been fixed en passant by recent conary commits, and if
so take a look plz ? [ i don't see any moves in rmake side that would had
helped in that front]


All the best,

António
