I have often just found out where kpsewhich searches for the formats and then replaced these old formats with symlinks to the new ones, but I'm not quite sure if this is a good approach. Does anyone have more insights on this? What's with this proliferation of TEXMF-trees in recent versions of teTeX: which ones do we actually need? Which ones can be deleted safely?
good point ... i lost track of that long ago; there is some info in the tex live manual about all those additional home/sys/whatever trees, maybe reading that manual helps
