Did you have these packages installed before trying to update TeX Live?
In that case this is very likely the reason for your problems. Norbert
reported such difficulties with his unofficial jadetex packages
recently. The thread starts here:
<URL:http://lists.debian.org/debian-tex-maint/2006/08/msg00027.html>.
There is no solution as of yet. And since this involves unofficial
packages, it has not been documented.
BTW, it should be possible to install these unofficial jadetex packages
again. But expect problems when certain texlive-* packages get updated.
