Weird. Your /var/lib/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf was not updated, when
texlive-omega was removed/purged. I guess it is in one of this
states, right? Can you tell us, which version of texlive-omega was
installed on the system before (/var/log/dpkg.log* might be helpful).

Isn't that the old bug that manual intervention *is* necessary if yoou
purge tetex after the last installation of texlive?

KIBBLESWORTH (n.)
The footling amount of money by which the price of a given article in
a shop is less than a sensible number, in a vain hope that at least
one idiot will think it cheap. For instance, the kibblesworth on a
pair of shoes priced at £19.99 is 1p.

It seems that texlive-omega was never installed in my system before.
The line displayed by aptitude for this package reads like this (spaces
not preserved):
p      texlive-omega      <none>     2007.dfsg.2-3

I grepped all my /var/log/dpkg.log* files (The first entry in the oldest
dpkg.log is dated from 2007-08-24) and no one of them mentions
texlive-omega (although some of them mention other texlive packages).

It returns nothing (not even unprintable characters, I verified by
piping via 'od').

Several, about 20 AFAIR, some of them are:
	#425803, #435156, #435081, #433889, #436235, #435719, #435081,
	#433889, #427032, 

probably most important: #425781 and a bit background #420390

Could be - I uninstalled the entire TeX stuff some time ago, without
purging packages (at the time) and now tried to install it again.

What is the bug number of that old bug - so that I can check if it is
what has bitten me?
(pointer to instructions how to check for this bug and how to work
around it - would be helpful as well)

According to this document, no special action is needed.  Just install
texlive-common-bin and texlive-common and the process of
installation&configuration is supposed to take care of this.

I tried to do this (using aptitude).  Did not work for me.
When trying to reinstall texlive-base and texlive-base-bin, they did not
properly configure themselves due to texlive-base-bin failure to
reconfigure.

Next, I had aptitude remove texlive-base and texlive-base-bin, and all
packages depending upon them.  Before the actual update, I marked all
those packages as ones to be purged rather than deleted.
texlive-lang-cyrillic failed to purge due to some missing directory.

Then, I re-ran aptitude, purging texlive-lang-cyrillic, and this time it
purged.

Then I had aptitude re-install texlive and all packages upon which it
depends.  This attempt ended in error.  Attached please find
reportbug-created file and fmtutil.* logfile for this attempt.
