gimme the output of the 'mktexlsr' command ran as root
Unfortunately, I think I will not be able to provide that information: I unmerged everything related to texlive, and am currently trying to manually re-merge them one by one (I am doing a fresh install), so as to try to solve the problem.
your ls-R files seem corrupted; nothing will work well without them, mktexlsr regenerates them (and ran like that may tell you whats wrong)
Indeed, this was part of the problem. I did regenerate many of them until the warning related to ls-R files all disappeared, however, it did not solve the problems, which is the reason why I decided to proceed with the complete unmerging and re-emerging of all texlive related packages. So far, the re-emerging is going well, so I guess something went wrong in my first attempt at emerging texlive, and it will be hard to figure out what, since I did not preserve the first install attempt.
The whole texlive is now merged. I cannot quite say for sure what went wrong in the first attempt (sorry I cannot put in evidence what went wrong in the first install attempt), so we can close the bug. Thanks for the help!
