OK you found the problem.
I have not completely followed the instructions because I thought this part was not important and I was totally wrong.
I have edited /etc/ld.so.conf:
$ cat /etc/ld.so.conf
/lib
/usr/lib
/usr/local/lib
/usr/i486-slackware-linux/lib
/usr/lib/seamonkey
/opt/texlive/2015/lib
Then, I have added the architecture to the path:
[...]
TEXARCH=`uname -m | sed -e 's/i.86/i386/' -e 's/$/-linux/'`
[...]
../configure \
--prefix=/opt/texlive/2015 \
--bindir=/opt/texlive/2015/bin/$TEXARCH \
[...]
Now, that's what I have:
$ which kpsewhich
/opt/texlive/2015/bin/i386-linux/kpsewhich
$ kpsewhich -var-value=TEXMFROOT
/opt/texlive/2015
$ sudo mktexlsr
mktexlsr: Updating /opt/texlive/2015/texmf-dist/ls-R...
mktexlsr: Updating /opt/texlive/2015/texmf-var/ls-R...
mktexlsr: Done.
$ sudo fmtutil-sys --all

That's good: My error "Can't locate mktexlsr.pl" has gone.
But after that, I am unable to compile a simple .tex file:
$ pdftex test.tex

Something wrong?
