The /usr/share/texlive/texmf-config is no more a symlink so you shouldn't see this
problem any more.

This was caused by invalid package ordering in instalation. It should
be fixed now as the dependencies are now tightened and the
installation order verified.

If you see any problems please reinstall. It is possible that the
configuration file was unrecoverably damaged during updates with old
packages which still had bad install order.

Not sure here. Maybe it is better to report it on kile/synctex forums
to find proper solution. If it involves any modifications on TeX Live
side, please let me know.

Thanks for feedback,
Jindrich
