Actually I am not sure what helped. Before I tried to uninstall and reinstall them I copied them manually in their respected location from CTAN from the path you mentioned. They were there, but I thought I must rebuild the FNDB and other stuff, so I also uninstalled the package and installed it again. then it worked -- but maybe because of the manual copying.
