Yes, but it fixed in the Debian packages, and that is my only
responsability.

Ubuntu has to pull new packages, but there is nothing I can do to
influence that.

Right, here it looks like:

[~] tlmgr init-usertree
(running on Debian, switching to user mode!)
[~] tlmgr install 12many
(running on Debian, switching to user mode!)
tlmgr: package repository 
ftp://ftp.riken.go.jp/pub/tex-archive/systems/texlive/tlnet
[1/1, ??:??/??:??] install: 12many [3k]
tlmgr: package log updated: /home/norbert/texmf/web2c/tlmgr.log
running mktexlsr ...
done running mktexlsr.

Title:
  tlmgr unable to set up TLPDB

Status in “texlive-base” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When attempting to use tlmgr on Ubuntu 13.10, the program fails.
  Different options produce slightly different output:

  $ tlmgr --gui
  (running on Debian, switching to user mode!)
  Loading local TeX Live database;
  this may take some time, please be patient ...
  cannot setup TLPDB in /home/nskillen/texmf at /usr/bin/tlmgr line 5308.
  Compilation failed in require at /usr/bin/tlmgr line 4439.

  $ tlmgr update --all
  (running on Debian, switching to user mode!)
  cannot setup TLPDB in /home/nskillen/texmf at /usr/bin/tlmgr line 5308.

  The commands also fails when using sudo to run as root, with exactly
  the same output.
