This is really strange and not reproducible on my test (on all my)
system.

Could you please send the output of the following (bash) commands:

------
for dir in $(kpsexpand '$TEXMF' | sed -e 's/,/ /g;s/[!{}]//g;'); do
  ls_R_files="$ls_R_files $(ls $dir/ls-R 2>/dev/null)";
done
ls_R_files="$ls_R_files $(ls /usr/share/texmf-texlive/ls-R 2>/dev/null)"
for file in $ls_R_files; do
  ls -l $file
done

for i in texmf.cnf fmtutil.cnf updmap.cfg ; do
  f=$(kpsewhich --format='web2c files' $i)
  if [ -z "$f" ] ; then
    echo "Warning: $i cannot be found with kpsewhich!"
  else
    ls -l $f
  fi
done

for i in language.dat ; do
  f=$(kpsewhich -progname=latex $i)
  if [ -z "$f" ] ; then
    echo "Warning: $i cannot be found with kpsewhich!"
  else
    ls -l $f
  fi
done


echo " Files in /etc/texmf/web2c/"
ls -l /etc/texmf/web2c/

echo " md5sums of texmf.d"
md5sum /etc/texmf/texmf.d/*


echo "Home dir"
ls -lR /root/.texmf-var /root/.texmf-config

------


Thanks

Best wishes

Norbert
