== Install teTeX 3{{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).0 ==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.}}
Lucky Debian users can install official but experimental == Install the ConTeXt packages. You have to enable them by adding the following line in your /etc/apt/sources.list file (as root) :==
<code> # echo "deb ftp:The status of ConTeXt in Debian//ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ .unstable is currently up to date with TeX Live 2021, and includes all the necessary bits and pieces, plus the modules shipped in TeX Live./project/experimental main" \ # >>/etc/apt/sources.list</code>
where "ftp.fr.debian.org" stands for your favorite mirror. ThenIf you are running Debian sid or later, as root, you just have to ask then the corresponding pakages to apt<code>context</code> and <code>context-get :modules</code> packages should already be visible.Then do
<code> aptitude update # apt-get aptitude install context context-t experimental tetex-bin tetex-extra</code>modules
teTex 3.0 packages are now * The final version in unstable debian bullseye (25th Febaka debian stable 11. 20062)is 2020.03.10.20200331-1* In ''unstable'' is a version that is from the TeX Live 2021
I wonder why <tt>unstable</tt> means ''(mature) development'', the version number may changes. The software is ''stable'Install a pdftex update' ?
The Debian tetex1. Download the two .deb-bin package contains a pdftex programs http://packages.debian.org/unstable/all/context/downloadhttp://packages.debian.org/unstable/all/context-modules/download
I suggest to delete this paragraph2. run as root (the version number might have increased a bit) dpkg --install context_2021.03.05.20220211-1_all.deb mtxrun --generate
== Install a [[MetaPost]] 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.
{{todo| why a meta post update? }}Step 3. needs to be done only when you have files in TEXMFHOME or you change things there.
== Install You have now a [[Latin Modern]] font update ==system wide context-installation!
Under Debian, root as just to ask : <code> # apt-get install lmodern pts-tetex-cm-super</code> The configuration/update is handled by apt-get On newer versions you do<code> # apt-get install lmodern cm-super</code> == Install the latest ConTeXt == Fetch the current distro from Pragma ADE:[[http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/current/cont-tmf.zip cont-tmf.zip]] As a user, I would advise to install context in ~/texmf (~ refers to the current user home directory) mkdir texmf cd texmf wget http://www.pragma-ade.com/context/current/cont-tmf.zip unzip cont-tmf.zip texexec --make == Finished! == That should do it! The output of <code>texexec --version</code> is hopefully like this:<code> TeXExec 5.4.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 texexec : TeXExec 5.4.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 texutil : TeXUtil 9.0.0 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1992-2004 tex : pdfeTeXk, 3.141592-1.30.4-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.5) context : ver: 2005.10.27 cont-en : ver: 2005.10.27 fmt: 2005.11.1 mes: english</code>{{Installation navbox}}
