Hi Nils,

now from the normal computer and not mobile ;-)

Because
	kpsewhich -engine=luatex lualatex.fmt
will give you
	/home/nils/.texlive2016/texmf-var/web2c/luatex/lualatex.fmt
instead of the correct system wide format dump.

> Additionally I have attached the bla.fls file which came from lualatex run with: lualatex -recorder bla.tex

As I said, the second line is the problem:

> INPUT /home/nils/.texlive2016/texmf-var/web2c/luatex/lualatex.fmt

You have once upon a time called
	fmtutil
instead of
	fmtutil-sys
and thus have switched to user mode for this format, meaning that
all system wide updates are hidden.

(TL2017 will changes something here to make it more difficult for
users to shoot themselves in the knee)

BY removing the above .fmt file, and maybe any other .fmt file
under
	/home/nils/.texlive2016/texmf-var/web2c/
you can go back to normal.

All the best

Norbert
