Since that worked, the old formats must have been in ~/texmf itself
(not in a subdirectory).  Lucky! But if they are in a subdirectory,
then "rm -r *.fmt" won't get rid of them.  You'd instead want:

  cd ~/texmf && rm -f `find -name '*.fmt'` && etc.

And it can be worse: my old ones were ~/.texmf-var/web2c/*.fmt
