I'm using standard distribution packages on Linux Mint.  I don't have
a mtxrun command.

mtxrun appears to be part of ConTeXt which I don't have installed.

Did you check if \openout lines appeared in the log file with the command?

luatex --fmt=luatex-plain --file-line-error </dev/null '\input' ./openout.tex
