I only now thought of testing with a MWE that doesn't use the offending 
new option, and this reveals:

    $ lualatex ly-version.tex
    This is LuaTeX, Version 1.07.0 (TeX Live 2018/Debian)
      restricted system commands enabled.
    (./ly-version.tex
    LaTeX2e <2018-04-01> patch level 4
    (using write cache:
    /home/uliska/.texlive2018/texmf-var/luatex-cache/generic)(u
    sing read cache: /var/lib/texmf/luatex-cache/generic
    /home/uliska/.texlive2018/
    texmf-var/luatex-cache/generic)
    luaotfload | main : initialization completed in 0.322 seconds
    Babel <3.20> and hyphenation patterns for 1 language(s) loaded.

    (/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/koma-script/scrkbase.sty
    (/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/koma-script/scrbase.sty
    (/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/graphics/keyval.sty)
    (/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/koma-script/scrlfile.sty)))
    (/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/koma-script/tocbasic.sty)
    (/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/koma-script/scrsize11pt.clo(load
    luc:
    /home/uliska/.texlive2018/texmf-var/luatex-cache/generic/fonts/otl/lmroman10-re
    gular.luc))
    (/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/koma-script/typearea.sty))
      (/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/luatex/lyluatex/lyluatex.sty
    ...

So this confirms that lualatex finds the package in /usr/share/texlive 
rather than that in ~/texmf. (While still kpsewhich finds the one 
installed in $TEXMFHOME).

Anything I have to update or can do to investigate?

Thanks
Urs
