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

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.
