[tex-live] Curious error message in tlmgr.

[S. venkataraman]

This is the output I got when I typed the
kpsewhich fmtutil.cnf command in a terminal.
**********************
/opt/texlive/2009/texmf-var/web2c/fmtutil.cnf
************************
Incidentally, I managed to update the texlive on my laptop
from my home where I use another ISP.
It upgraded around 645 packages.  But ,
in the end it gave the same error message and
said that the upgrade was unsuccessful.
Best,
S. Venkataraman
