Thanks for the idea. It didn't work. texlive-base is not installed, so
purge di nothing. I rechecked the packages installed. Some tex-related
packages still had configuration files, so i purged them all. Then I
started again, installing tex-common, texlive-binaries, and then
texlive-base. And here it fails again as above.

Yes, I tend to be careful before upgrades and have managed to have no
major issues for years. This is my home PC anyway, so I have more
freedom for failure.
But, well, latex is fairly critical for me :-)
