Hi Wolfgang,

Thanks for your remark: indeed after issuing the command

	mtxrun --script cache --fonts —erase

the result is correct with palatino as the choice of font. 
I notice that the luatex-cache increases during the time: is there any reason for which the luatex-cache is not erased when updating? 

Best regards: OK
