[Context] [Bug 379146] [NEW] mtxrun

Public bug reported: from Alan BRASLAU, untested I did a fresh install of the minimals today and observed a fleeting, obscure mtxrun bug: $ context myfile did not find the script mtx-context.lua $ mtxrun --script /usr/local/context/tex/texmf-context/\ scripts/context/lua/mtx-context.lua myfile ran fine, as now does all subsequent runs of "context myfile". So something gets initialized, but is not found by default. You will only notice this upon a (totally) fresh install. ** Affects: context Importance: Undecided Status: New -- mtxrun https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/379146 You received this bug notification because you are a member of ConTeXt distribution team, which is the registrant for ConTeXt distribution.

[Context] missing executable bit

(from the ConTeXt mailing list: problem with beta for linux-64; about missing executable bit of luatex) > Strange, I do always: cd ~/minimals && svn up && ./do_all.sh > I'll take a look at it... There is (in bin_commit.sh): svn add -q "$BINS/luatex/$ver_new_luatex" svn add -q "$BINS/luatex/$ver_new_luatex/luatex" svn delete "$BINS/luatex/current/luatex" svn cp "$BINS/luatex/$ver_new_luatex/luatex" "$BINS/luatex/current/" If luatex/current doesn't get the executable bit set, my only explanation is then that the last line forgets to copy the executable bit along. I can set it explicitely once again, but I would nevertheless like to know what is going on. (I have fixed it now in repository, but it is going to repeat next time if I don't fix the building scripts.) Mojca

[Context] Fwd: Luatex 0.64.0 announcement

You are welcome to run the build scripts again ... Thanks, Mojca ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Taco Hoekwater <taco(a)elvenkind.com> Date: Fri, Nov 12, 2010 at 14:50 Subject: [luatex] Luatex 0.64.0 announcement To: luatex development list <dev-luatex(a)ntg.nl>, "General discussion of LuaTeX." <luatex(a)tug.org>, Dev Context <dev-context(a)ntg.nl> Hi, I have just uploaded the archives for a new luatex release, 0.64.0. This is a development release, but it also fixes a few rather annoying bugs in 0.63.0. News: * New lua functions pdf.refobj(), pdf.maxobjnum() and pdf.objtype() * New lua function node.is_node() * The max_strings configuration variable's maximum value is raised to be identical to texlive's maximum (2097151), and same for param_size (32767). * The embedded mplib is now 1.503. * Minor cleanups in the output of fontloader.to_table(): - removed out-of-range altuni's from the output - don't dump the extra encodings, just the actual font encoding - export the encoding's name also as 'enc_name' at one level up - no longer exporting unset macstyles, nor zero uniqueids - fix creationtime and modification time * Ongoing work on the epdf library Bugfixes: * Fix a bug where an explicit hyphen prevented hyphenation for the whole rest of the paragraph * Internal font copying forgot to copy the last font dimen * os.selfdir() is now documented * patch quad (\fontdimen6) in \letterspacefont to be compatible with pdftex * Multi-page pdf inclusion was very slow in 0.63.0 * Some extra checks added to the handling of glue_spec node objects in lua code. * Some node.prev pointers have been corrected (but this is not quite finished). * A small fix to lpeg 0.9. The archives can be downloaded from supelec as usual: http://foundry.supelec.fr/gf/project/luatex/ You could also check out the sources via anonymous svn: svn co http://foundry.supelec.fr/svn/luatex/tags/beta-0.64.0 Bugs and feature requests can be added to the issue tracker at http://tracker.luatex.org Have fun, Taco

Can please try the following? svn co http://svn.contextgarden.net/minimals/bin/tex/linux-64/luatex cd luatex mkdir x svn add x svn cp current/luatex x/ ls -l x/ I'm curious if the file x/luatex is executable on your system or not. It is on mine and it should be on yours, but maybe something weird happens. Mojca
