Yes and no.  I'm trying to set up a multi-user environment, and
/var/opt/texlive is owned by the software owner.  Nobody else may write
there.  I ran "mtxrun --generate" while being that software owner.
(I'm used to doing it this way for other engines.)

I want to configure the system so that everybody may use contents from
TEXMFSYSVAR, but optionally uses an additional personal directory.

I don't know if this makes sense in the case of luatex-cache, but had
thought so.

Thanks, Rainer
