    Control: retitle -1 luametatex: "mtxrun --generate": lua error : startup file: /bin/mtxrun.lua:2438: attempt to assign to const variable 'i'

    More accurate title, as described below.

    Indeed, I can reproduce the problem on another machine, only with

    You'll see the failure in an upgrade if you upgrade luametatex at the
    same time as the TeX Live packages (at least, *not after* TeX Live).
