Thanks,

there was something broken in my texlive setup.
I reinstalled MacTex-2013 and followed the steps you said, now it's working.

The 'ls -l' command then lists what kpsewhich has found. If some error condition is reported, then the file is missing. Or the ls-R "hash" file is missing. You might check with

Then it helps to disable it first – when something is listed/recorded as being enabled then updmap/updmap-sys see no sense in re-enabling it (again) – and to enable it once more afterwards.
