Install teTeX 3.0
Lucky Debian users can install official but experimental packages. You have to enable them by adding the following line in your /etc/apt/sources.list file (as root) :
# echo "deb ftp://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ ../project/experimental main contrib non-free" \
# >>/etc/apt/sources.list
where "ftp.fr.debian.org" stands for your favorite mirror. Then, as root, you just have to ask the corresponding pakages to apt-get :
# apt-get install -t experimental tetex-bin tetex-extra
Install a pdfetex update

Install a MetaPost update

Install a Latin Modern font update
Under Debian, root as just to ask :
# apt-get install lmodern pts-tetex-cm-super
The configuration/update is handled by apt-get
Install the latest ConTeXt
Fetch the current distro from Pragma ADE: [cont-tmf.zip]
As a user, I would advise to install context in ~/texmf (~ refers to the current user home directory)

TODO: How does one do this? (See: To-Do List) |
Finished!
That should do it! End result is hopefully like this:
TeXExec 5.4.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005
texexec : TeXExec 5.4.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005
texutil : TeXUtil 9.0.0 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1992-2004
tex : pdfeTeXk, 3.141592-1.30.4-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.5)
