In font-syn.lua there is
local pathlist = fonts.names.getpaths()
This used to contain some hard-coded paths for Mac users, but then
Hans switched to reading fonts.conf with
-- name is "fonts.conf"
local name = fonts.names.xml_configuration_file or ""
if name ~= "" then
-- this works on Hans' computer, but not here; name becomes empty
local name = input.find_file(name,"other")
-- so this loop is never entered and system fonts are never read
if name ~= "" then
collect(xml.collect_texts(xml.load(name),"dir",true))
end
end
I guess that Hans has a fonts.conf in his TeX tree, while Linux & Mac
users don't, and luaTeX doesn't know where to look for fonts.conf.
What's worse: I suspect that OSFONTSDIR might be completely ignored.
No, don't ask me where fonts.conf should be. Mine are at
/Users/mojca/.fonts.conf
/private/etc/fonts/fonts.conf
but I have no idea what's the proper/default location if any.
The /private/etc/fonts/fonts.conf one says:
<!--
Load per-user customization file
-->
<include ignore_missing="yes">~/.fonts.conf</include>
<!--
Load local system customization file
-->
<include ignore_missing="yes">local.conf</include>
So I guess that's where the other one gets included.
