<pre wrap="">I found some time to update today miktex and texlive and would like
to report some luaotfload problem.
I used a small document for the tests which loads an system font:
\documentclass{scrartcl}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont{Arial}
\begin{document}
blub
\end{document}
I deleted the fonts caches before the tests.
Problems
1. luaotfload can't create the font database on-the-fly during the
compilation:
luaotfload | db : Font names database not found, generating new one.
luaotfload | db : This can take several minutes; please be patient.
luaotfload | db : Failed to save names database
luaotfload | db : Database creation unsuccessful.
And there is nothing in the "names" folder.
This happens in texlive + miktex.
Running
luaotfload-tool --update --force --vv
works fine and creates the database.
2. Miktex/installation specific:
Miktex hanges while create the cache for a new font and shows a lua
prompt:
luaotfload | db : Database creation unsuccessful.
luaotfload | load : loading the extended glyph list from ConTeXt
lua>
The problem seems to be that luaotfload tries to load font-age.lua
which doesn't exist on a normal miktex system (there is not context)
3. lualatex compiles fine after I created the font databases with
luaotfload-tool, but the log (both systems) shows a lot of this
messages:
luaotfload | cache : Could not write lookup cache
luaotfload | cache: Could not write to cache
luaotfload | cache : Could not write to cache
