Bug Description
Binary package hint: context
For a simple Metapost file, e.g. x.mp with content:
beginfig(0)
draw (0,0)--(1,1);
endfig;
end.
mptopdf x.mp
yields
MTXrun | forcing cache reload
MTXrun | resolvers: warning: no lua configuration files found
MTXrun | resolvers
MTXrun | resolvers
MTXrun | the resolver databases are not present or outdated
MTXrun | resolvers: using suffix based filetype 'lua'
MTXrun | resolvers: using suffix based filetype 'lua'
MTXrun | resolvers: remembering file 'mtx-base.lua'
MTXrun | resolvers: using suffix based filetype 'lua'
MTXrun | unknown script 'base.lua' or 'mtx-base.lua'
and fails to generate a PDF file (I believe this is just a symptom of some bug in luatex, since mpost x.mp works -- executing luatools yields the same error message).
I'm using Ubuntu 11.04, updated from 10.10 (mptopdf worked before the update).
