Thank you very much.

When I asked to fetch all the binaries except for x86_64-linux, I
didn't mean that this platform didn't need an update, but that the
binary for 64-bit linux was built on Debian 9 which doesn't run on
some "ancient" operating systems, so the binary had to be built on
CentOS 7 first.
I now took the time to properly set up a new user and a systemd job to
run the builds on CentOS 7 on our farm from now on.
And I updated the binary in the subversion repository of TeX Live, so
we just need to re-try typesetting a document, but I assume it should
work with the updated binary.
Now, a couple more questions ...
Given that the LuaTeX sources have been updated in branch2023 ... What
about the ConTeXt sources (or at least the hotfix for running) in that
branch?
Also: should LuaMetaTeX sources be updated there as well (this is only
relevant if ConTeXt gets updated)? And ideally transferred from
Master/source/luametatex-2.10.08.tar.xz
to
Build/source/utils/luametatex/luametatex-src
?
Thank you,
Mojca
