Bug#394594: texlive-context: Context is approx 45 versions out of date



Package: texlive-context
Version: 2005.dfsg.2-1
Severity: important

Both the testing (2005.dfsg.2-1) and the new unstable (...2-2)
versions of texlive-context are based on the 2005.10.27 version
of ConTeXt which is 45 versions out of date as of this writing.

I had been struggling with context in Etch for a week and found
it strange that many of the examples on the website, wiki, and
mailing lists could not possibly work with the ConTeXt I have.

Hopefully a new version can be picked up from
  http://www.pragma-ade.com/download-1.htm
before Etch freeze as the current Debian texlive-context
package seems to serve no useful purpose.

I note that the new ...2-2 version includes three new
files - supp-{pdf,mpe,mis}.tex - but all else is October 2005
or older.  Perhaps an update script is broken?

-- Package-specific info:
If you report an error when running one of the TeX-related binaries 
(latex, pdftex, metafont,...), or if the bug is related to bad or wrong
output, please include a MINIMAL example input file that produces the
error in your report. Don't forget to also include minimal examples of
other files that are needed, e.g. bibtex databases. Often it also helps
to include the logfile. Please, never send included pictures!

If your example file isn't short or produces more than one page of
output (except when multiple pages are needed to show the problem),
you can probably minimize it further. Instructions on how to do that
can be found at

http://www.latex-einfuehrung.de/mini-en.html (english)
