I was too quick: The tlmgr is from an earlier texlive which is in
/usr/share/texlive2016.
How do I get the tlmgr from
/usr/local/texlive/2017/bin/x86_64-linux
working? Do I have to set a path? How? Which one?
sorra for silly questions, but I got stuck here
Wolfgang
Why don't you set your PATH so that "/usr/local/texlive/2017/bin/x86_64-linux" is before 
"/usr/bin"?

        Kornel
Isn't, what I have? >>
#paths for texlive2017
PATH=/usr/local/texlive/2017/bin/i386-linux:$PATH; export PATH
MANPATH=/usr/local/texlive/2017/texmf-dist/doc/man:$MANPATH; export MANPATH
INFOPATH=/usr/local/texlive/2017/texmf-dist/doc/info:$INFOPATH; export
INFOPATH
Wolfgang
WRONG PATH, change "i386-linux" to "x86_64-linux"

If you do this, then what does
        # which tlmgr
or
        # where tlmgr
say?

Is /usr/local/texlive/2017/bin/x86_64-linux/tlmgr executable?

        Kornel
Thanks, Kornel, I have changed to what you wrote. How would I on the
command line change the rights for the tlmgr.pl, which are right now
user=root and group=root?
This is OK, if you installed as root (which you have apparently)

Unfortunately I have uninstalled the 2016 texlive and have no tlmgr
available
tlmgr is part of TL2017 as well.
Here:
        #which tlmgr
                /usr/local/texlive/2017/bin/x86_64-linux/tlmgr
        # ls -l /usr/local/texlive/2017/bin/x86_64-linux/tlmgr
~/Downloads$ which tlmgr
  >no response
Means that the PATH is not OK.
Check
        # ls -l /usr/local/texlive/2017/bin/x86_64-linux/tlmgr
                lrwxrwxrwx 1 kornel kornel 41 nov 25  2016 
/usr/local/texlive/2017/bin/x86_64-linux/tlmgr -> 
../../texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/tlmgr.pl
        # ls -lL /usr/local/texlive/2017/bin/x86_64-linux/tlmgr
                -rwxr-xr-x 1 kornel kornel 300762 júl 18 01:59 
/usr/local/texlive/2017/bin/x86_64-linux/tlmgr

(I installed it as user kornel, so I am not forced to be root for instance for 
updates)

we@wolfgang-Mr-Whisper-Ultra-SSD-II:~/Downloads$ where tlmgr
bash: where: Kommando nicht gefunden.
Where is csh built-in command, sorry, try using csh or tcsh

I tried also ~/Downloads$ whereis tlmgr
tlmgr:
no further output.
Its a mess with me!
whereis does not respect PATH, so its output is not relevant.

Thanks, Kornel, for your patience.
Here are the outputs; I see no difference to yours:
we@wolfgang-Mr-Whisper-Ultra-SSD-II:/usr/local$ which tlmgr
/usr/local/texlive/2017/bin/x86_64-linux/tlmgr
we@wolfgang-Mr-Whisper-Ultra-SSD-II:/usr/local$ ls -l /usr/local/texlive/2017/bin/x86_64-linux/tlmgr lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 41 Nov 25 2016 /usr/local/texlive/2017/bin/x86_64-linux/tlmgr -> ../../texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/tlmgr.pl we@wolfgang-Mr-Whisper-Ultra-SSD-II:/usr/local$ ls -l /usr/local/texlive/2017/bin/x86_64-linux/tlmgr lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 41 Nov 25 2016 /usr/local/texlive/2017/bin/x86_64-linux/tlmgr -> ../../texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/tlmgr.pl we@wolfgang-Mr-Whisper-Ultra-SSD-II:/usr/local$ ls -lL /usr/local/texlive/2017/bin/x86_64-linux/tlmgr -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 299941 Mai 19 17:07 /usr/local/texlive/2017/bin/x86_64-linux/tlmgr
we@wolfgang-Mr-Whisper-Ultra-SSD-II:/usr/local$

where tlmgr
/usr/local/texlive/2017/bin/x86_64-linux/tlmgr
wolfgang-Mr-Whisper-Ultra-SSD-II:/usr/local/texlive/2017/texmf-dist/scripts

if I start as user
tlmgr gui
I get the menus but are told I have no rights and most of the selections are grayed out.
If I start as root, the command is not found.
# tlmgr gui
bash: tlmgr: Kommando nicht gefunden.

do I need different PATH settings for the root?

Confused: Wolfgang
