Hans, a couple of weeks ago, I reported a similar problem: none of the fonts in my personal texmf-trees ends up in the database. I can still reproduce the problem: > > luatools AGaramondPro-Regular.otf > /Users/tas/texmf/fonts/opentype/adobe/agaramond/AGaramondPro-Regular.otf > > mtxrun --script fonts --list --all "agaramond*" > > (i.e. nothing found). I can only use all these personal fonts via the file: syntax; name: does not work. Maybe these problems are related? Something's not quite kosher in the font database... I had also noticed a similar behavior in the past with Fontin... the font was not found in $TEXMFHOME tree. That was one of the reasons that I started storing fonts in ~/.fonts (the other being that other applications on Linux can also find the font). I will try to see if I can reproduce that with the latest beta.
