That should not happen for linux under any normal circumstances, but some of developers were too busy this time. ./first-setup.sh --flags='[you need a pattern to ignore luatex binary when syncing]' This looks nice as a workaround 'till 0.50 will face away. But how will this pattern look like? Kinda regex? Take a look at man rsync under FILTER RULES. One would need some experimenting, I'm not sure what would work best.

Do you mean because of the old luatex binary (Hans seems to have been a bit busy in the meantime) in linux or is there some other reason? In theory you can do ./first-setup.sh --flags='[you need a pattern to ignore luatex binary when syncing]' An alternative would be to add texmf-local/bin to PATH and put your version of luatex to that place. If you have a script, you don't need to call setuptex. It should be enough to set the PATH variable properly.

Re: [NTG-context] Metapost inclusion does not work
Hi Mojca You can most probably do export TEXMFCACHE=~/.context/texmf-cache as well (but then every user would have to generate his own database). OK. That's true. But then I will end up in redundant data. Maybe export TEXMFCACHE=/var/tmp/context/texmf-cache works. Then I have no world write permission in the /usr tree. I'll check it next update. Do you mean because of the old luatex binary (Hans seems to have been a bit busy in the meantime) in linux or is there some other reason? No. The luatex binary is way too old for the »beta« tree. But it's not a real problem as it always can be updated manually. ./first-setup.sh --flags='[you need a pattern to ignore luatex binary when syncing]' This looks nice as a workaround 'till 0.50 will face away. But how will this pattern look like? Kinda regex? The files in question are /usr/local/share/context/bin/luatex /usr/local/share/context/tex/texmf-linux/bin/luatex Thanks for your help and answers. marco ___ 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 : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___

[NTG-context] Metapost inclusion does not work
Hi,
the following example just prints »Hello World!«, without the square.
What's wrong?
\startuseMPgraphic{test}
fill fullsquare scaled 5cm;
\stopuseMPgraphic
\starttext
Hello World!
\useMPgraphic{test}
\stoptext
ConTeXt ver: 2010.03.20 22:59 MKIV
this is luatex, version beta-0.50.0-2009122419
BTW: The same with luatex 0.52
Thanks in advance.
