There may be a better answer, but I would offer a couple of things: 1) It probably would have been best to use "sudo apt-get remove tetex" so that all of the dependent packages would have been removed also. You would then have kept that list of removed packages so that you could rebuild/reinstall them after installing texlive. 2) Since you didn't do that, you will now need to remove these packages by whatever means necessary and of course rebuild them once texlive is successfully installed. (Again, I would first try "sudo apt-get remove evince jadetex lilypond mftrace") I'm not sure how you'll handle xfree86 because I'm not sure that it is a real package on your machine (it might be "provided by" something else).
