Oh, this should not happen. Maybe some conffile setting is wrong? Can you please send the output of grep '^TEXMF =' /etc/texmf/texmf.cnf grep '^TEXMF =' /etc/texmf/texmf.d/05TeXMF.cnf kpsewhich -debug=127 --format='web2c files' fmtutil.cnf > kpsewhich.log 2>&1 (the last command, of course, won't create any output, but instead a file kpsewhich.log > I switched into 'single', umounted all filesystems and tetex was installed > very fast without any problems. But it will probably be slow in processing (La)TeX files once you mount them again. So we better fix the configuration problem - and it wouldn't be the first time that it turns out that there's a bug in the upgrade logic which caused such a misconfiguration.
