Sorry, this version is ancient, the respective Debian version is from
Wed, 09 Aug 2006, we are currently at 2005.dfsg.3-1
Too much has changed in the meantime, I cannot know what is the bug.

It seems that tex-common is too old, or what ever.
Please do a
kpsewhich texmf.cnf
it should give
/usr/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf
and then do
ls -l /usr/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf
which should point to
/etc/texmf/texmf.cnf
If this is the case, please call
update-texmf
as root.
Best wishes
Norbert
