andreas at morpheus:~>apt-cache policy tetex-base
tetex-base:
  Installiert:(keine)
  Mögliche Pakete:3.0-13
  Versions-Tabelle:
     3.0-13 0
        990 http://debian sid/main Packages

> - which version of jadetex is installed

andreas at morpheus:~>apt-cache policy jadetex
jadetex:
  Installiert:3.13-6.0
  Mögliche Pakete:3.13-6.0
  Versions-Tabelle:
 *** 3.13-6.0 0
        990 http://localhost sid/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     3.13-6 0
        990 http://debian sid/main Packages

This 6.0 version is the same as in sid, just with an updated Depends
with tetex-bin (>= 2.0.1-1) | texlive-base-bin, tetex-extra (>= 2.0.1-2)
| texlive-base

andreas at morpheus:~>grep jade `kpsewhich fmtutil.cnf`
### From file: /etc/texmf/fmt.d/40jadetex.cnf
# jadefmtutil.cnf: configuration file for fmtutil; jade flavor.
jadetex         etex    language.dat    &latex jadetex.ini
pdfjadetex      pdfetex language.dat    &pdflatex pdfjadetex.ini
### End of file: /etc/texmf/fmt.d/40jadetex.cnf

In the meantime I solved this problem by removing the pdfjadetex.fmt and
pdflatex.fmt from /var/lib/texmf/web2c and removing and reinstalling
jadetex.
