Something weird on your system. I guess your fmtutil.cnf contains an
entry for omega, although that program is not available. Actually my
system contains the fmtutil.cnf two times: /var/lib/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf
and /usr/share/texmf-texlive/web2c/fmtutil.cnf and I guess the
generated file in /var is used. Does the file
/var/lib/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf exist? If yes, could you post it? If
not, check for /usr/share/texmf-texlive/web2c/fmtutil.cnf and give us
that one.

Thanks,
  Hilmar
