Hi Norbert, please remember that I have fixed the problem when I perform the
tests that you are asking so it may not look as it did when texlive-bin
refused to install. I also forgot to mention that I am on amd64
architecture.

 Yes it is: /etc/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf

and the list of files in

They are:  .   00tex.cnf               10texlive-base.cnf
10texlive-omega.cnf
..  10texlive-base-bin.cnf  10texlive-latex-base.cnf  50cyrtexinfo.cnf

Yes it exists and it does mention omega but this may very well be because I
installed texlive-omega to fix the crash.

but distinguishable from those already listed. I believe this bug can be

I will try to uninstall the texlive packages and reproduce it for you. Maybe
it was, as you suggest, the results of a stray config file floating around
that only affected me. If so that would be good.
