Dear All,
thank you very, very much for all the excellent work!! After following the suggestion to compile, I had to change luaotfload-main.lua from current TeXLive :
luaotfload.min_luatex_version = { 0, 95, 0 } --- i. e. 0.95.0
caused rejection of the shiny new version of lualatex; changing to
luaotfload.min_luatex_version = { 1, 0, 0 } --- i. e. 0.95.0
remedied this minor glitch in luaotfload-main.lua.
Kindest regards,
Ernst
