Wrong Lua package loaded by 'require'

Wrong Lua package loaded by 'require'

[Przemek Wesolek]

Hi,

I have problems using PGF graph drawing with ConTeXt. The problem is
described on https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/414102/

It all boils down to Lua trying to load wrong file. When

  require 'pgf.gd.control'

is called, ConTeXt resolvers come into play and 'lua variable format'
locates Control.lua -- note the uppercase letter here -- which cannot be
loaded (on Linux) and 'require' fails:

I suspect some part of the system (ConTeXt? kpsewhich? TeXLive?) messes
up and the resolver instead of pgf/gd/control.lua hits
pgf/gd/force/Control.lua. But I have plainly no experience in where to
look...

One more place, where I found some traces: in
texmf-var/luatex-cache/context/a86c089b384a3076dc514ba966a1fac9/trees/929f6dbc83f6d3b65
dab91f1efa4aacb.lua file I have (in ["content"]["files"])

> ["control.lua"]={ "tex/generic/pgf/graphdrawing/lua/pgf/gd", "tex/generic/pgf/graphdrawing/lua/pgf/gd/force" }

as well as (in ["content"]["remap"])

> ["control.lua"]="Control.lua"

Clearly not OK.

My system is current TeXLive 2017. LuaTeX 1.0.4. ConTeXt 1.01. Ubuntu
14.04 and 16.04.

having two files with the same name looks like an error in pgf to me

context ignores cases in filenames and in fact in tds there cannot be 
two files with the same name ... keep in mind that windows is case 
insensitive ... if there are files with the same name then they normally 
are in (sub)paths that are identified by some distinctive category 
(variable)
