WEED{{note|Releases of Debian (or any other distribution for that matter) usually contain way too old TeX distributions for ConTeXt MKIV (but should work fine for MKII). If you want to live on bleeding edge, consider using the packages from Debian/unstable, [[ConTeXt Standalone]], or at least install the latest version of [[TeX Live]] with [[TLContrib]] manually.}} == Install the ConTeXt packages == The status of ConTeXt in Debian/unstable is currently up to date with the soon to be released TeX Live 2011, and includes all the necessary bits and pieces, plus the modules shipped in TeX Live. If you are running Debian sid or later, then the <code>context</code> and <code>context-modules</code> packages should already be visible (and the <code>context-nonfree</code> and <code>context-doc-nonfree</code> packages are in the nonfree repository).Then do aptitude update aptitude install context context-modules # optional aptitude install [http://packages.debian.org/experimental/all/context/download context-nonfree] [http://packages.debian.org/sid/context-doc-nonfree context-doc-nonfree] * The final version in debian squeeze (aka debian stable 6.0) is 2009.11.26-2* In ''unstable'' is a the version that will be in TeX Live 2011 === Install latest unstable context .deb package === <tt>unstable</tt> means ''(mature) development'', the version number may changes. The software is ''stable'' 1. Download the two .deb-s http://packages.debian.org/unstable/all/context/downloadhttp://packages.debian.org/unstable/all/context-modules/download 2. run as root (the version number might have increased a bit) dpkg --install context_2011.05.18.20110627-1_all.deb mtxrun --generate 3. run as user mtxrun --generate Step 2. is currently still necessary, but soon an update of tex-common will run mtxrun --generate automatically when packages have changed (like mktexlsr), and there will be no need to run this anymore. Step 3. needs to be done only when you have files in TEXMFHOME or you change things there. You have now a system wide context-installation! == See also == {{Installation navbox}} [[Category:Installation]]
