You may want to think about adding texlive as a requirement. On my Arch Linux system at least, I kept getting an error until I installed texlive.

I got the package from the Arch Linux AUR(Arch user repository). The packages on AUR are community maintained packages, so the package may not have had all the necessary dependencies.
Here's the linke to the PKGINSTALL thats used for the makepkg utility in Arch linux. Its pretty easy to grok even if your not familiar with it. It definitely not listed as a dependency. Let me know if you think I should file a bug report with the package maintainer.

Ubuntu has texlive as a dependency of context anyway:

$ apt-cache rdepends context
context
Reverse Depends:
  context-nonfree
  context-doc-nonfree
  texlive-full
  mlpost
  libmlpost-ocaml-dev
  kile
  context-modules
  context-modules
  texlive-base
  texlive-base
  tex-common
  luatex
  lmodern
$
