Bug#140460: tetex-extra: it won't install - config fails

What appears to be happening is that your TeX setup isn't finding
the omega.ini and lambda.ini files (which are included in
tetex-extra).
Have you tried again since your original attempt? (It's not clear
what versions of the packages you're using, because dpkg -l
truncates the version number.)
What do you get if you type
# kpsewhich -progname=omega omega.ini
# kpsewhich -progname=lambda lambda.ini
(You should get /usr/share/texmf/omega/plain/config/omega.ini and
/usr/share/texmf/omega/lambda/config/lambda.ini, respectively.)
Do you have any TeX-related environment variables set? Try
running (as root) texconfig conf, which should produce output
similar to the following:
==================== binaries found by searching $PATH ===================
tex: /usr/bin/tex
etex: /usr/bin/etex
pdftex: /usr/bin/pdftex
omega: /usr/bin/omega
mf: /usr/bin/mf
mpost: /usr/bin/mpost
tcdialog not found.
dvips: /usr/bin/dvips
xdvi: /usr/bin/xdvi
kpsewhich: /usr/bin/kpsewhich
mktexpk: /usr/bin/mktexpk
mktextfm: /usr/bin/mktextfm
=========================== Kpathsea variables ===========================
TEXMF={/root/texmf,/usr/local/share/texmf,/usr/local/lib/texmf,!!/usr/share/texmf}
=============== environment variables (ok if no output here)
