How on earth did you manage to get this path? Is that $TMPDIR ?
Exactly. $TMPDIR for my normal user account.
If so, it is probably different for each user, and in that case the distinction between root/user could be important.
Actually I've just realized that $TMPDIR isn't set for root. Most probably this is why LuaTeX chose my home folder (sudo -s made me root!) during database and format generation as its fall-back cache location because there was no $TMPDIR. Still, LuaTeX should've used the cache path specified in texmfcnf.lua in the first place. Oliver
