Ok, now I am getting really surprised ...

Well, then why does fmtutil/tcfmgr not find the file?!?!?!

Please do the following:
 - edit /usr/share/texmf/texconfig/tcfmgr and add at the shebang
   line a -x, so it should look like
  #!/bin/sh -x
 - rerun the last test I send you (fmtutil with bash -x)
   and redirect the output as usual > foo.log 2>&1

Thanks a lot ...

Best wishes

Norbert
