I saw the same problem yesterday. Browsing for help on Google Groups,
the best help I could find was from some posts from several years ago
advising, more or less, "Download a more recent copy of ConTeXt." At
that point, I gave up, as I was only looking to try a quick ConTeXt
sample file.

Running locate on cont-en.efmt and context.efmt confirms that neither
file is present anywhere on my system, so I know it's not just a path
or permission problem.
