I did indeed. But I purged everything before I installed the version
from unstable again. Obviously a lot of stuff remained in /etc/texmf/
even after I had removed each and every TeX-related package.
I did it again and checked with "dpkg -S texmf" that no installed
package had any files left in there. After (re)moving /etc/texmf
reinstallation of all the packages worked. Sorry for the false alert.
