Hello there,
I recently upgraded to ConTeXt ver: 2018.04.04 00:51 MKIV and found that
the following simple code gives an error, where as it compiled without
complaining in ver: 2017.05.15 21:48.
\setupexternalfigures[location={local,default}]
\starttext
\input ward
\placefigure[left,none]{}{\externalfigure[cow][width=3cm]}
\input ward
\stoptext
The error happens when the location of placefigure is left or right, but not
with center. The error is the following:

I am running a freshly installed Ubuntu 19.04. Has anybody run into this issues,
is there a known workaround ?
thanks in advance,
