Yes, I ought to have said that first!! Now here is what I tried just now: 1/ reinstall lua by hand 2/ remove everything in /usr/local context, and unzip again justtex and linuxtex 3/ rename /usr/local/texlive to some name unknown from my path (surely wasn't necessary, but let's try anything...) 4/ edit setuptex and defined $TMP and $TEXMFCACHE there 5/ . setuptex 6/ texexec --make --all --pdftex 7 /texexec --make --all --xetex 8/ texexec --make --all --luatex 9/ luatools --generate 10/ luatools --ini --compile --verbose cont-en And again, context complains the same way: TeXExec | unable to fix backend map path TeXExec | running: luatools --fmt=cont-en test.tex LuaTools | using format name /tmp/luatex-cache/context/formats/cont-en.fmt LuaTools | no luc/lua with name /tmp/luatex-cache/context/formats/cont-en LuaTools | LuaTools | runtime: 0.12 seconds TeXUtil | unable to locate test.tui actually then, even pdftex is broken! I'm certainly missing something obvious? -- Jean
