We are experiencing the same issue on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. The installation gets stuck at

Pregenerating ConTeXt MarkIV format. This may take some time...

I can confirm that this has worked a few weeks ago as I am setting up servers using ansible on a regular basis, running the same playbook all the time.

When searching for this, I came across this thread: https://askubuntu.com/questions/956006/pregenerating-context-markiv-format-this-may-take-some-time-takes-forever

As suggested, pressing Enter *several times* during the installation "resolves" the problem and the installation continues (<Enter> lines in the following output are the number of times I pressed enter):

done.

Unfortunately, pressing enter can merely be a workaround, as we need to be able to set up machines automatically using ansible. Therefore a solution would be highly appreciated :)
