ConTeXt does not respect custom TEXMFHOME location

ConTeXt does not respect custom TEXMFHOME location

[Johannes Hermann]

Hello mailinglist,

I have a problem with ConTeXt (Texlive 2019) and setting a custom
location of TEXMFHOME.
After installation I end up with a /usr/local/texlive/2019/texmfcnf.lua
as follows:

return {
  content = {
    variables = {
      TEXMFHOME = "~/.texlive2019/texmf",
    },
  },
}

Now when I place my custom version of publ-aut.lua in the appropriate
subfolder it is not used.
Although this works when default TEXMFHOME is used.

Is this behavior known or is this a bug?

Johannes
