Yes, of course. updmap looks only in the file it finds when looking for
kpsewhich --format='web2c files' updmap.cfg
usually this is either /var/lib/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg or
~/.texmf-var/web2c/updmap.cfg. The changes you made to your
10luximono.cfg were only merged into ~/.texmf-var/web2c/updmap.cfg by
calling update-updmap.

Ah, well, then at least we can't blame our documentation. I'm not sure
what's in this message, but even if it is still correct, it probably
assumes some prior knowledge that you didn't have.
