It's not a problem for me to keep testing as I'm an administrator of two Mac labs with networked homefolders. I've been away from work for a few days but I'll be there tomorrow morning. I'll test with 2.13.9-1 and if anybody has a working link for a newer version I'll try that too.
As I mentioned in the report, the .lilypond-fonts.cache-2 directory is created successfully, but not filled. So I wonder if the code that creates the cache files is trying to reach the homefolder by a different method (ie assuming homefolders are only located in /Users for example). Thanks for looking into this.
