I left TEXMFCACHE variable as an excuse for not adding texmfcnf.lua to
the distribution. (Though in theory it's still not needed, you just
need to regenerate the database since LuaTeX doesn't know about the
location of your old cache.)

I have added the file now.

I guess that TEXMFOS is not needed either.
A month ago I decided to clean up setuptex a bit and removed
everything but PATH setting ... and then the lack of TEXMFOS has
destroyed the whole evening trying to figure out why it worked on
everyone's machine but mine ... The bug has been fixed though, so ...
if you update now to fetch that additional file ... does it work then?

If yes, I'll remove the two remaining variables from setuptex. (I
might be offline for a longer period though.)
