so, the main question is: why isn't "mtxrun --generate" run?
It is run. But this has been broken since the very beginning.
When you run "mtxrun --generate" from withit mtx-update in creates a different database and updates that one (at least that used to be a problem in past; I didn't check that recently, but it is one of few longstanding nasty bugs (the other one is inability to properly set the platform in a decent way)).
Most of the time it is not as nasty since formats for MKIV are rebuild later anyway, so often one would not notice the problem. At the end there are two databases then.
Or maybe not. I need to have a closer look again. I tried to reinstall now and it generated only a single database (for mkiv, but for mkii some files were missing), however there was no mkiv format. Mojca
