Re: [NTG-context] LuaTeX beta-0.60.0 on Mac OS X Tiger (was: Latest beta...)
Hi Mojca, I downloaded as asked. Version 3520: luatools --generate does generate the database. context --make all results in a bus error. mtxrun results in a bus error. Version 3559: luatools --generate results in a bus error. mtxrun results in a bus error. :-( So we are not yet further I am afraid.

Re: [NTG-context] LuaTeX beta-0.60.0 on Mac OS X Tiger (was: Latest beta...)
Hi,
sorry for my slow responding rate.
I just compiled luatex 0.60.0 native on Tiger 10.11. - After
installing and updating it looks like that it works!.
i send the binary to Mojca offline.
Kind regards
Willi

Dear Mac users,

perfectly fine on Leopard.
Michael has sent me a new binary compiled on PPC; any user of Tiger on
Intel (Willi?) that would like to use the new beta should sent me his
own binary.
But in any case it would be great if somebody would figure out the
reason why the new LuaTeX fails to work on older macs. Before we were
first able to cross-compile, Arthur had to suggest quite some changes
in LuaTeX source, so maybe some of newly added libraries or some
configuration started messing up things recently.
Based on some assumptions:
- there are not too many Mac OS X 10.4 machines around
- there are not too many testers of the latest-and-greatest LuaTeX
version (apart from ConTeXt community)
- if there appears to be a combination of both, users will either
stick to some older TeX or at least they will compile luatex on their
own (again, apart from ConTeXt community)
I expect that there will probably not be much more feedback about the
problem, but it would be really really great to fix it. I have no
access to Tiger at the moment. I hope that Dick will be able to
provide some more feedback once he comes to it. Until that is
resolved: if osx-intel/osx-ppc users want to have a working version of
minimals, you'll have to provide luatex version on your own.

I hit a similar problem on a ppc mac. So it's probably not an
intel-only
thing.
The .firstsetup script crashes. It worked fine through at least
March 23,
for what it's worth.
Here's a transcript
I have a crash log too, if that would help.
