All texlive versions should work as soon as the conffiles are present -
in other words, in case the buggy tetex-base has been purged, as soon as
the list of texlive packages mentioned earlier has been installed with
force-confmiss.
Do I understand correctly that upgrading to the latest texlive packages
in sid still doesn't work on your system? This means that either some
conffiles are still missing, or that there is yet an other bug.
If upgrading really still fails, can you please send the error message
and the temporary file, if applicable?

What do you infer from the date of jadetex?
