Dear Ohura-san,
I hope you are well!
There is also a bug report requesting an upgrade to this version, as
2.10 is not supported by the current ConTeXt. Copying in the bug
report.
If you are no longer able to be an active Debian Developer for any
reason, please do let the project, and other people can take on your
Debian workload.
Best wishes,
Julian
