You are still missing /usr/sbin in your PATH variable.  You seem to be 
running bash:

export PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:$PATH

(bash can do this in one line).  Copy the command exactly, CAPS are 
important here.  Linux does not have the current directory in your PATH, 
which means it will not run a command from the directory you are at 
(this may feel strange if you come from a windows environment, but is 
normal)  The command would have run if you had typed:

/usr/sbin/koha-plack --start library

your system seems to be in a strange situation, you might want to 
uninstall koha, remove all dependencies, and install it again:

apt-get remove koha-common     <- this does not affect your database or 
configuration files.
apt-get autoremove             <- this deletes every dependency that is 
no longer needed, which should be a ton of perl libraries.
apt-get install koha-common      <- this should reinstall koha, and 
every one of its dependencies.  If your system has problems, this 
command would eventually fail.

If this last command fails, I'd like to see the contents of your 
/etc/apt/sources.list file and every file at /etc/apt/sources.list.d
