Adam (and Michael): I forgot to mention that I had already tried to switch repositories, and always got the same error. I tried again now with a couple of random repositories, and the log follows. I admit I have not tried all of them, but isn't this strange?

I also tried the terminal command, but it tells me it does not find tlmgr.
