Hi Akrem,

> (running on Debian, switching to user mode!)

This is a Debian installation, and you are not using vanilla
TeX Live, but the TeX Live that comes with Debian, so it
might be better to contact the maintainers (which by chance is also me):
	debian-tex-maint at lists.debian.org

Furthermore, isn't that clear: ...

> /usr/bin/tlmgr: Please install xzdec and try again.

apt-get install xzdec

should solve your problem. But I recommend reading the man page
of tlmgr before continuing, you will work in USER MODE and need
to set up the user mode first, see man tlmgr.

Best

Norbert
