Perhaps the installation hat a problem before this.
Try to purge the package and reinstall.

This happened during an upgrade from 1.2 to 1.3. Purging didn't
help, so I finally did a "rm -rf /usr/lib/texmf" and reinstalled.
This worked.
The machine is running 1.3 now, so I can't really reproduce this easily.
