mtxrun (and context MKIV and LMTX) do not read texmf.cnf rather read values from contextcnf.lua (it used to be texmfcnf.lua, not sure how TL handles this). You can also try setting it explicitly in the shell: $ TEXMFCACHE=/var/opt/texlive/texmf-cache mtxrun --generate Aditya ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
