Hello Otared,

tlmgr update --all

should now fix symlinks (apart from the fact that if I want to update,
every fifth package fails to update on average, so I need to restart
updating every few minutes). Theoretically that command followed by
rsync-drived updates should work OK now.

I took another look. By "now" I mean that in less than 30 hours
    tlmgr update --list
should return you bin-context version >= 10774.

At the moment of writing this it's still
    bin-context: local: 9789, source: 10592

If already the first command starts complaining about non-existent
texlive.tlpsrc as it did here, I had to do something else:
    tlmgr option location http://mirror.ctan.org/systems/texlive/tlnet/2008

----------

Norbert has another script almost ready to put TeX Live packages with
ConTeXt betas & latest luatex binaries on the garden, but I have some
other urgent things to do in the following days. After that I'll try
to finish the script ASAP.

After those scripts are ready, something like
    tlmgr -location http://texlive.contextgarden.net/current update --all
should do all the required steps (though it will be far less efficient
than rsync which only downloads the changes, not the entire package).
TL team argued that updates will not be that frequent anyway, and that
people have broadband connections anyway (true in most cases).
