IMHO your system is broken. Please check for correct permissions and ownership of the tree /var/lib/texmf/ and for the file /var/lib/texmf/web2c/pdftex/latex.fmt
chmod 644 /var/lib/texmf/web2c/pdftex/latex.fmt fixed the problem.
Do you have changed /etc/texmf/web2c/mktex.cnf and/or removed the group `mktex' from /etc/group? Or do you have removed the program /usr/lib/mktex/public or some of the symbolic links
Nope. But I use a umask of 0077 for root. Guess that was the reason latex.fmt was created with wrong permissions. Never had any problems with umask 0077 in the last 10 years. If the file needs to be public readable, maybe the generating script should ensure that?
