LANGUAGE looks weird to me.  What happens when you call

perl

(exit again with C-c or C-d) ?  For some unfathomable reason, that has
been a rare application for me that actually complained about invalid
locale settings.

On the other hand, some of the recent report looked like you'd be
missing bibtex (which is a symlink on my system to a binary provided by
the texlive-binaries package).

Maybe you are either missing the teclive-binaries package or the bibtex
"alternative" is not properly set up?
