Dunno then, it is very confusing, some fonts are found by file name and
some are not. Putting them in TEXMF tree makes them found.
Wild guess: could it be related to the dot in ".fonts" ?
Other fonts in that directory are found, font names works for all fonts
there too.
May I chime in here? 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...
ah, this could be because a runtime scanned tree is not scanned for
fonts in the database; this is somewhat disputable as such a tree is not
expected to be stable i.e. files can come and go
i can look into it but now now (no time now) and only if there is no
performance penalty
it's why I would always make a local tree 'databased'
