Package: texlive-base Version: 2016.20160523-1 Severity: normal I tried to start tlmgr in four different ways. - as user 1. update --all 2. --gui - as root 3. update --all 4. --gui
It doesn because of "cannot setup TLPDB". Please see the bash output for further details $ uname -a Linux MONSTER 4.5.5-towo.1-siduction-686 #1 SMP PREEMPT siduction 4.5-11 (2016-05-19) i686 GNU/Linux $ tlmgr --version (running on Debian, switching to user mode!) tlmgr revision 41258 (2016-05-19 17:23:37 +0200) tlmgr using installation: /usr/share/texlive TeX Live (http://tug.org/texlive) version 2016 $ tlmgr --gui (running on Debian, switching to user mode!)

If you have problems with combination of packages in a LaTeX document, please consult your local TeX User Group, the comp.text.tex user group, the author of the original .sty file, or any other help resource. In particular, bugs that are related to up-upstream, i.e., neither Debian nor TeX Live (upstream), but the original package authors, will be closed immediately. *** The Debian TeX Team is *not* a LaTeX Help Desk *** If you report an error when running one of the TeX-related binaries (latex, pdftex, metafont,...), or if the bug is related to bad or wrong output, please include a MINIMAL example input file that produces the error in your report. Please run your example with (pdf)latex -recorder ... (or any other program that supports -recorder) and send us the generated file with the extension .fls, it lists all the files loaded during the run and can easily explain problems induced by outdated files in your home directory. Don't forget to also include minimal examples of other files that are needed, e.g. bibtex databases. Often it also helps to include the logfile. Please, never send included pictures! If your example file isn't short or produces more than one page of output (except when multiple pages are needed to show the problem), you can probably minimize it further. Instructions on how to do that can be found at http://www.minimalbeispiel.de/mini-en.html (english) or http://www.minimalbeispiel.de/mini.html (german) ################################## minimal input file ################################## other files ###################################### List of ls-R files -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2845 Jun 2 15:51 /var/lib/texmf/ls-R lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Feb 22 15:54 /usr/share/texmf/ls-R -> /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXMFMAIN lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 May 23 03:54 /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/ls-R -> /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXLIVEDIST lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 May 23 03:54 /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/ls-R -> /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXLIVEDIST ###################################### Config files -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1101 May 25 14:24 /etc/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 May 23 03:54 /usr/share/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf -> /var/lib/texmf/fmtutil.cnf-DEBIAN lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 May 23 03:54 /usr/share/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg -> /var/lib/texmf/updmap.cfg-DEBIAN -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5041 May 28 19:59 /var/lib/texmf/tex/generic/config/language.dat ###################################### Files in /etc/texmf/web2c/ total 8 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 283 Feb 22 15:54 mktex.cnf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1101 May 25 14:24 texmf.cnf ###################################### md5sums of texmf.d ca40c66f144b4bafc3e59a2dd32ecb9c /etc/texmf/texmf.d/00debian.cnf 055e06548bac99958d8ab2dd1248f2b4 /etc/texmf/texmf.d/80tex4ht.cnf -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 4.5.5-towo.1-siduction-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=de_DE.utf8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages texlive-base depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.59 ii libpaper-utils 1.1.24+nmu4 ii tex-common 6.05 ii texlive-binaries 2016.20160513.41080-2+b1 ii ucf 3.0036 ii xdg-utils 1.1.1-1 Versions of packages texlive-base recommends: ii lmodern 2.004.5-3 Versions of packages texlive-base suggests: ii evince [postscript-viewer] 3.20.0-3 ii ghostscript [postscript-viewer] 9.19~dfsg-1+b1 ii perl-tk 1:804.033-1+b2 ii xpdf [pdf-viewer] 3.04-1+b1 Versions of packages tex-common depends on: ii dpkg 1.18.7 ii ucf 3.0036 Versions of packages tex-common suggests: ii debhelper 9.20160403 Versions of packages texlive-base is related to: ii tex-common 6.05 ii texlive-binaries 2016.20160513.41080-2+b1 -- debconf information excluded
