Just for the record
ken at deluxe ~ $kpsewhich latex.ltx
/opt/texlive/2015/texmf-dist/tex/latex/base/latex.ltx

ken at deluxe ~ $ls -l
/opt/texlive/2015/texmf-dist/tex/latex/base/latex.ltx
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 252484 Jan 31 23:48
/opt/texlive/2015/texmf-dist/tex/latex/base/latex.ltx

I think it is the old files in ~/.texlive2015 that are causing my
problem.
