Hello,

Indeed, as suggested in the manual, one should install at least one
"scheme", or at least, a "collection", to use modular TeX Live.

Consequently, installing `texlive-bin' is not sufficient, and should be
avoided unless you want a very minimal system, with a lot of sweat. For
example, `texlive-bin' does not provide any ".fmt" file.
