Output has been stored in /tmp/fmtutil.Jzo9pPaf Please include this file if you report a bug.This happened due to an incompatibility between old texlive-extra and new texlive-bin. Unfortunately I forgot to tie them together before upload to unstable, it was doe in texlive-bin -4 .texlive-extra entered testing last night, so all should be set right now.
