This was it! However, it is a little more complicated story...
I use tcsh, even as root. So I copied tcsh from /usr/bin to /bin,
changed /etc/passwd for users schulte and root, but forgot to mention
/etc/shells; there was still a line with /usr/bin/tcsh ....
Yes, I shall write 1000 lines with "I shall not move debian installed
files to odd places..." On the other hand, it may become very uncomfortable
to be root and having your login shell not in the root file system.
