IMHO the update script has not been executed. Don't know why this had failed. Nevertheless become root and do
/usr/lib/texmf/texconfig/update
Unfortunately, that did not help. Same error. Something other I could try?
Hmmm .... do as root fmtutil-sys --missing and report, that is if this fails please attach /var/lib/texmf/web2c/pdftex/latex.log then we may see on the last few lines what has gone wrong here.
