Yes.

Irrelevant. Nobody ever said that the texlive-20150521-source is
enough to get a running/working system.

You need the Master/texmf-dist tree, also in svn.

There you find
	Master/texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/mktexlsr.pl

I repeat: Taking the source.tar.gz, compiling, and using the inst
directory will *NOT* give you a working TeX system.
The source tar is only used for building the binaries *to*be*dropped*
into Master/bin/<ARCH>/
