I tried to fix it after Taco reported the exact problem. Plese test

Hi,
I tried it on ConTeXtgarden as well and the problem remained (the
installed beta was too old there as well). So it's definitely
Patrick's fault! ;))
If you want, I can run the 'installcontext' script more often
(currently i check for a new ConTeXt version only once a day).

Hi,
apropos a good manual: is the debian installation description still

I did an installation with last weeks unstable release and found the

Jak.
