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

[Context] ConTeXt Minimals: some statistics of usage
by Mojca Miklavec 14 Oct '10

14 Oct '10

Hello, As I have promised some time ago here is some raw statistics from the last month (older statistics is not kept on server): There are 29917 different jobs. There are 379 different IP numbers. Bytes sent: 14,451,171,433 The following numbers represent unique IP numbers that have tried to download minimals for a specific platform: platform linux: 94 platform linux-64: 85 platform osx-64: 68 platform mswin: 65 platform osx-intel: 48 platform osx-ppc: 15 platform freebsd-amd64: 3 platform freebsd: 1 (missing: kfreebsd, linux-ppc, solaris) Mojca (I need to figure out how to use sqlite [and how to install the bindings] before we can start collecting more statistics over time :)

[Context] messing up with SVN
by Mojca Miklavec 11 Oct '10

11 Oct '10

Dear binary builders, I might mess up with SVN repository containing the binaries a bit today/tomorrow. So please don't run the updates yet. Once it's done, I will let you know. (I plan to drop building XeTeX and pdfTeX by default, though I will probably leave both source repositories there ... just in case that anyone *will* want to build or test them.) Mojca

[Context] tlcontrib
by Taco Hoekwater 08 Oct '10

Hi, I guess most of you are on dev-context as well, but in any case: Please, if you have moment to spare, have a good look at the TLContrib website and associated repository: http://tlcontrib.metatex.org/ The system should now be ready for the initial kickoff (I hope). The new repository already contains context 2010.07.30, luatex 0.63.0, metapost 1.502. However, many of the binary packages for luatex and metapost are still missing, even though they already exist in the context minimals. It would be nice to fill in at least the most obvious architectures (win32/macosx) before announcing tlcontrib on a larger scale. The unix luatex packages should contain the following: luatex texlua -> luatex symlink texluac -> luatex symlink dviluatex -> luatex symlink The unix metapost packages should contain: mpost dvitomp -> mpost symlink mfplain -> mpost symlink (win32 is a special case, all others use the same file structure) Missing to this date are the following: luatex.alpha-linux luatex.amd64-freebsd luatex.amd64-kfreebsd luatex.i386-cygwin luatex.i386-freebsd luatex.i386-kfreebsd luatex.i386-netbsd luatex.i386-solaris luatex.mips-irix luatex.powerpc-aix luatex.powerpc-linux luatex.sparc-linux luatex.sparc-solaris luatex.universal-darwin luatex.win32 luatex.x86_64-solaris metapost.alpha-linux metapost.amd64-freebsd metapost.amd64-kfreebsd metapost.i386-cygwin metapost.i386-freebsd metapost.i386-kfreebsd metapost.i386-netbsd metapost.i386-solaris metapost.mips-irix metapost.powerpc-aix metapost.powerpc-linux metapost.sparc-linux metapost.sparc-solaris metapost.universal-darwin metapost.win32 metapost.x86_64-darwin metapost.x86_64-solaris It would be really cool if the context minimals builders would go to the trouble of registering at tlcontrib.metatex.org and publishing the packages that match the binaries they take care of in the minimals. Best wishes, Taco

[Context] Launchpad Bugs Re-enabling Auto Expiring Bugs
by deryck.hodge＠canonical.com 05 Oct '10

Bug expiry in Launchpad is changing ------------------------------------ The way Launchpad handles inactive bugs is changing. This affects your project ConTeXt distribution at https://launchpad.net/context What's going to change ----------------------- Right now, the bug expiry option is enabled for ConTeXt distribution but is inactive across all of Launchpad. We weren't happy with the way bug expiry worked, so we turned it off. However, now we're ready to switch it back on. In about two weeks, we will re-enable automatic bug expiry in Launchpad. However, we are going to deselect the bug expiry option on each project, including ConTeXt distribution. What this means for your project -------------------------------- If you want Launchpad to automatically expire bugs that appear to be inactive, you need to select the 'Expire "Incomplete" bug reports when they become inactive' option on this page: https://bugs.launchpad.net/context/+configure-bugtracker For more detail on how Launchpad determines if a bug is inactive, visit our help page: https://help.launchpad.net/Bugs/Expiry If you enable automatic bug expiry, Launchpad will start to automatically apply the new 'Expired' status to inactive bugs from around 18 October 2010. If you do not want Launchpad to automatically expire inactive bugs, you should do nothing. Why we're doing this --------------------- Most projects have some bugs that languish with no activity. They clutter bug listings and, let's face it, are unlikely to ever come back to life. Automatic bug expiry lets you hand Launchpad the burden of dealing with these. We're disabling the feature on your project, and others, so that Launchpad continues to work for you in the way it does now -- i.e. without automatic bug expiry. If you do want to re-enable bug expiry, it'll take just a few seconds. Note: You may have already received this notification. Please forgive the additional email if that is the case. We wanted to be sure we contacted all the approproiate people for your project. Also, the previous emails were sent before the changes to your project settings. You should double check to make sure the settings are now what you want for automatic bug expiry. Deryck Hodge Launchpad Bugs Team Lead

[Context] changes in building scripts
by Mojca Miklavec 24 Sep '10

24 Sep '10

Hello, I do not plan changes until three weeks from now, but I have just realized that: - pdfTeX hardly keeps changing at all - XeTeX hardly keeps changing at all (there have been some recent changes in microtypography though) - there are constant problems with building pdfTeX and XeTeX on different platforms - ConTeXt is leaving pdfTeX and XeTeX behind - both developers of pdfTeX and XeTeX seem to be pretty busy, so bug reports in building process for both of them rarely get fixed - building LuaTeX trunk hardly makes any sense unless it's done on daily basis which nobody does or is willing to do (apart for testing the building process and reporting problems before the official beta is released) - metapost is being built together with luatex - TeX Live 2010 has just been released, so binaries from TeX Live should do their job As a consequence, I plan to change the whole building process into a single step: - just build the latest luatex beta - take luatex and metapost from that build - take everything else from TeX Live - (maybe try to build luatex trunk, but don't commit it into repository) Any objections or other comments? (I feel that frequent building of pdfTeX and XeTeX could help find the problems in building much faster than during the lenghty TL production, but if developers are not too responsive, that hardly helps. When we started the minimals, all kinds of new functionality has been added to XeTeX that was crucial for proper functionality of ConTeXt in XeTeX, but I don't know of any other recent addition with that kind of influence.)
