Fails on finding the logfile when using synctex with lualatex

[kaueraal]

When running
latexrun --latex-cmd lualatex --latex-args '-shell-escape -interaction=nonstopmode -synctex=1' --bibtex-cmd biber main.tex
latexrun is not able to find the log file and outputs
failed to extract job name from latex log.
It is probably due to the fact, that lualatex outputs
SyncTeX written on main.synctex.gz.Transcript written on main.log.
instead of the usual line when synctex is enabled.

Using
latexrun --latex-cmd lualatex --latex-args '-shell-escape -interaction=nonstopmode' --bibtex-cmd biber main.tex
works correctly.

I noticed that now the syntax for adding extra arguments is --latex-args='--synctex=1'

I can run it, but it doesn't seem to generate the *synctex.gz file

The file is written into the output directory (obj_dir default latex.out).
If you need it in the top directory for synching the pdf, pass flag -O ..
