Thanks, Steffen Hi Steffen, Can you post a example where this did happen for you. Hi Hans and all others, I found the reason for the wrong index sorting in Steffens files. The correct sorted file contains something like this. \enableregime[utf] \starttext text\index{Bestimmung} text\index{Bühler} text\index{Bildung} text \placeindex \stoptext The text is enclosed by the normal start/stoptext pair and the document setup is written before the start of the document while the wrong file contains this: \starttext \enableregime[utf] text\index{Bestimmung} text\index{Bühler} text\index{Bildung} text \placeindex \stoptext The files did not really contain start/stop but use ConTeXts document structure and \everystarttext is executed by \startpoduct, the first command in the product file. The problem is now, ConTeXt write information for the index sorting into the tui file and a few additional entries for every spcifiec file encoding, in this utf-8. This works quite well in the first example because \enableregime is writte before \starttext while in the second example the sorting information are written before ConTeXt knows the file encoding. A workaround for the moment is to write \enableregime before \startproduct in the main file but I hope this coule be fiyed in the next release. I still wonder why nobody noticed this untill now.

Is there a way for me to keep the ConTeXt part of this up-to-date with current (stable) versions? I am in the same situation. Ubuntu 7.10, but the context version of the latest texlive is too old for my needs. Considering that I have XeTeX 0.996, do I want to, or should I stick with what currently works? In most cases (except if you want to test mkiv) the current binaries are ok. So, for pdftex (1.40.3-2.2), metapost (0.993) and xetex (0.996), I stick with the version provided by ubuntu. So far I have not run into a bug that was fixed in a higher version. If I do, I will download the latest binaries. For me, the more important thing is to have an uptodate context files. After a bit of trial and error, this is what I settled on. Create $HOME/texmf. Download justtex.zip, and cont-tmf.zip, cont-fnt.zip from pragma's website, and unzip them inside $HOME/texmf. Download the font files from TeX Gyre and unzip then in $HOME/texmf. Remake the formats, move the stubs and few programs to the path, and you are done. The only drawback of this is that you have to update manually. ctxtools --updatecontext unzip the file in TEXMFLOCAL, and not TEXMFHOME, so it does not work with this setup. I used $HOME/texmf rather than TEXMFLOCAL because there are some other programs that install stuff at TEXMFLOCAL. With the current mechanism, I can just mv $HOME/texmf to another directory, and go back to the context that comes with unbuntu.
