Is there a line containing

	export PATH

at the end of those files?

You seem to have installed another TeX distribution. Depending on
Synaptic's configuration not only dependent but also recommended
packages get installed---TeXmaker recommends texlive-latex-extra
that itself depends on texlive-common etc. I guess you've installed
Ubuntu's TL 2007 when installing TeXmaker. What's the output of

	dpkg -l tex-common

and

	which pdflatex

(the last command as user and root)?
