I just updated the Ubuntu edgy backports of the texlive packages (for i386) and have been running them on my feisty laptop for half an hour and they pass my usual 'compile textbook in ConTeXt' test. The 'context' package provides version 2007.04.17 12:51.
They are recompilations of the latest Ubuntu gutsy (7.10) packages, which are Norbert's latest Debian packages with maybe a couple additions (on the other hand, Ubuntu and Debian look like they are in sync right now). Let me know if you have problems. To use the packages, add these lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list : deb http://web.mit.edu/download/sanjoy/texlive-backports/ edgy/ deb-src http://web.mit.edu/download/sanjoy/texlive-backports/ edgy/ To add my key (to use the security features of apt-get): wget http://www.inference.phy.cam.ac.uk/sanjoy/sanjoy.asc sudo apt-key add sanjoy.asc Then apt-get update apt-get install cm-super texlive-fonts-recommended \ context context-nonfree context-doc-nonfree ('cm-super comes from the universe repositories) If you've been using them before, you don't need the install line with explicit pkgs. Instead just update with apt-get upgrade -Sanjoy gpg DSA: 0x3FCDAAA3 gpg fp: 9722 56B0 F787 12A9 164E 34B7 09C9 E543 3FCD AAA3 ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
