 Indeed something has changed in the structure of the new tree, or in
 the scripts, and obviously maybe both, so if you are not aware, don't
 update!

I have a Mac, and am not experiencing the problems you describe. The  
updating process went smoothly, without any hitch, so I suspect it  
must be some problem with your setup (maybe older formats shadowing  
the ones ConTeXt created?).

Hi:

 Can I update to mkiv from TexLive 2008?


TL2008 does have MKIV package. However, it is not always latest.
(I think TL 2008 just follow the CTAN version)
So minimals installation is recommended.

Hi again Hans,

It is not possible to update to the latest release with sudo ctxtools  
--updatecontext.

In order to inform other Mac users, and possibly prevent them to  
update, I am reporting my (bad) experience:
DO NOT UPDATE UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON…

Indeed something has changed in the structure of the new tree, or in  
the scripts, and obviously maybe both, so if you are not aware, don't  
update!

And now my experience: yesterday I tried to update and then I got the  
message
FatalError : Your format does not match the base files!
expalining me why ConTeXt could not typeset my files.
After trying (without success…) to install the minimals from the  
Garden, I had to install anew my whole TeX tree with TeXMac (which  
installs TeXLive 2007).
However the ConTeXt present on MacTeX dates back to 2007.01.12, so in  
order to have a more recent version, I downloaded manually from
http://foundry.supelec.fr/frs/?group_id=14release_id=313
the file
cont-tmf-20080521.zip
copied it into (using sudo)
/usr/local/texlive/texmf-local
and then unzipped it there. Finally I did
sudo texmfstart texexec --make --all --pdftex
after which I have a ConTeXt mkii
ConTeXt ver: 2008.05.21 15:21 MKII fmt: 2008.8.7 int: english/english
which is not the latest, but it works fine…

this normally means that you need to run texexec --make

Re: [NTG-context] release

2008-08-07 Thread Otared Kavian
Hi Hans,

For your information, yesterday I updated my ConTeXt installation with  
the command:
sudo ctxtools --updatecontext
and the result is that I cannot anymore typeset any file with mkii,  
nor mkiv…
Out of despair, I removed my whole MacTeX install (running texlive  
2007 on Mac OS X 10.5.4), and tried to update again.
My version is now
context version: 2008.08.05 18:47
and I get the following error message:
ConTeXt ver: 2007.01.12 15:56 MKII fmt: 2008.8.6 int: english/english  
language : language en is active
system : cont-new loaded (/usr/local/texlive/2007/../texmf-local/tex/ 
context/base/cont-new.tex
FatalError : Your format does not match the base files!
FormatVersion : 2007.01.12 15:56
MKII FilesVersion : 2008.08.05 18:47
Apparently something has changed in the way ctxtools --updatecontext  
acts.

Any solution in sight?

Thanks for your attention: OK

Hi Hans,

Thanks for your attention.
The last time I updated was this morning at 9:30 am…
Up to now my update procedure was always with sudo ctxtools -- 
updatecontext and it used to work until July 30 (last week).
I will try the minimals at the Garden and see what is going on (but  
right now I am in Italy and my Internet connection are not very  
smooth… so maybe I have to wait a while before I can experiment the  
minimals).

Best regards: OK
