Damned am I stupid, putting the stuff into /usr/share/texmf/web2c. Why
did NOBODY tell me that I am blind...

Correct solution is now in the code:
texmfsysvar=$(kpsewhich -expand-var '$TEXMFSYSVAR')
texmfvar=$(kpsewhich -expand-var '$TEXMFVAR')

if [ "$(id -u)" -eq 0 ] ; then
  TEXFORMATS=$texmfsysvar/web2c
else
  TEXFORMATS=$texmfvar/web2c
fi
export TEXFORMATS

That's all that is needed.

Thanks a lot!

Best wishes

Norbert
