May I ask you to fetch the new version of first-setup.sh, run it and retry? You are on Snow Leopard. Yes, it's expected to break (sorry) because so many people have been complaining that they want 64-bit binaries (and I could have written a visible warning to the mailing list which I forgot to do). I hoped for the fact that the number of SL users is small enough, so that they would be willing to rerun first-setup and fetch the 64-bit binaries. I decided to patch to detect SL, then changed my mind, and then changed my mind again after Hans figured out that he's not able to boot with 64-bit kernel and requested to support 64-bit platforms automatically. If you would boot into 64-bit mode (try to boot by holding down keys 4 and 6), it would not work at all without replacing the version of first-setup.sh that you currently use. Sure, we should provide fat binaries, but ... two years ago I was still working on 56k connection during weekends (if anyone wants usb modem, let me know :). The distribution arose from my desire for not having to fetch Hans' one-line patches in 4MB zips several times per day. Fat binaries would mean some 60 MB of extra space (and I consider that a waste of resources). > I could solve the problem by replacing the setuptex files coming with the > latest release by those of ConTeXt version 2009.11.13 12:45: now I can > typeset my files even with Math-Times and mkiv… (Working on a macBook Pro and > Mac OS X 10.6.2).
