Hm, I'm not sure whether force-confmiss makes any difference here.

Hm again - that might have been a bad idea. If those files where

Are the packages configured now? What's the output of
dpkg -l texlive* | grep -v ^ii

You mean, makempx is missing? And that's a problem you encounter when
you use mpost, not during package installation/configuration?
