Hello Hans,

thank you. Knowing you are using Windows, here are Ubuntu steps:

   1. ctx beta installed as usual in dir with first-setup.sh
   2. source tex/setuptex (setting paths)
   3. cd tex/texmf-local
   4. ln -s /path/to/fonts fonts
   5. mtxrun --script fonts --reload
   6. mtxrun --script fonts --list --all

Fonts in /path/to/fonts are not listed.
The structure of the directory is:
/path/to/fonts/opentype/brousil/RePublic/RePublic Bold It Std.otf
/path/to/fonts/opentype/brousil/RePublic/RePublic Bold Std.otf
/path/to/fonts/opentype/brousil/RePublic/RePublic Regular It Std.otf
/path/to/fonts/opentype/brousil/RePublic/RePublic Regular Std.otf

It used to work this way.
