I work on some other unix systems and have custom lisp code in site-lisp.
I copied /usr/local/share/emacs21/site-lisp from one of those to the
debian box.  It had auctex installed in it already.  I cleaned that out
and it still failed.

It's the same...

apt-get remove auctex
rm -rf /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/auctex
made sure auctex is not in /var/cache/apt/archives
apt-get install auctex

It downloaded auctex-11.82-1 from ftp.us.debian.org
same error with tex-jp.el...
