Hi,

I've attached /tmp/fmtutil.amiyTgkU

The relevant lines may be its last lines:

   fmtutil [WARNING]: inifile pdfxmltex.ini for pdfxmltex/pdftex not found.
   fmtutil [WARNING]: inifile xmltex.ini for xmltex/pdftex not found.
   fmtutil [INFO]: disabled formats: 1
   fmtutil [INFO]: successfully rebuilt formats: 43
   fmtutil [INFO]: not available formats: 2
   fmtutil [INFO]: failed to build: 2 (pdftex/pdfxmltex pdftex/xmltex)
   fmtutil [INFO]: total formats: 48
   fmtutil [INFO]: exiting with status 2

The exit status of 2 makes me think that it results from there being two
unavailable formats.


These files are in texlive-base

hille@debian:~$ apt-file search xmltex.ini
texlive-base: /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/generic/tex-ini-files/pdfxmltex.ini texlive-base: /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/generic/tex-ini-files/xmltex.ini

They were in texlive-formats-extra before the latest uploaded; different path, hence no file conflict.

Versions of packages texlive-binaries recommends:
ii  dvisvgm       3.1.2+ds-1
ii  texlive-base  2023.20231007-1

Upgrading texlive-base to 2023.20231207-1 should solve your issue.
