tllocalmgr kpsewhich doesn't find installed package

Hi,
I recently tried installing tex packages with

tllocalmgr

the problem is that kpsewhich seems not to be able to find the installed package. See below for the output:

I read this this way: nicematrix is being installed to /usr/local/share/texmf/tex/latex/ and this whole hashing for searching is being rebuilt. After that I check with kpsewhich if it can find a preinstalled tex package which succeeds. Trying to find the newly installed package nicematrix the same way fails.

Looking into the debug output I see that /usr/local/share/texmf/ is being searched and looking into the /usr/local/share/texmf/ls-R (the file on the right side in above image) file I can see that nicematrix should be present.

Since nicematrix isn't found but should be according to the log output, I'm pretty confused. Does someone know what's going wrong here?

Alright, thought posting as image would be good in this case since I can highlight things this way.
Here's the output in text
