Hi Wolfgang,

Thanks for your remark: indeed after issuing the command

mtxrun --script cache --fonts â€”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

I don't know,

\definefallbackfamily[mainface][serif][texgyrepagella]
\definefontfamily[mainface][sans][texgyrepagella]
\setupbodyfont[mainface]

\starttext

Why is the text in bold italic?

\stoptext

works ok here so you need to check what palatino gets selected (maybe you need to be more specific)
I can reproduce with the palatino on my system which comes in ttc-format.

The problem is that context adds only a single font from a ttc-font to the database
which results in weird results.

Clearing the font cache with "mtxrun --script cache --fonts --erase" helps sometimes
but the problem can appear when the font cache is updated.
