accessing libertinus

Post by Haines »

I did upgraded my operating system (devuan excalibur) and in so doing lost access to the
libertinus font, even though I believe it is automatically comes with TexLive. I did register
fonts for LaTeX. Here is a mwe

\documentclass{memoir}
\usepackage{libertinus}
\begin{document}
test
\end{document}

This produces the error:

(/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/base/textcomp.sty)[\directlua]:1: attempt to index
a nil value (global 'fonts')
stack traceback:
[\directlua]:1: in main chunk.
l.27 }

I do not understand the error. Is it saying that there is an error at line 27 of texcomp.sty?
