That crash is caused by an API and ABI change in cdebconf 0.129:

-char *question_get_field(const struct question *q, const char *lang,
+char *question_get_raw_field(const struct question *q, const char *lang,
        const char *field);
+char *question_get_field(struct frontend *obj, const struct question *q,
+        const char *lang, const char *field);

Currently cdebconf-entropy (or any other plugin) crashes
cdebconf when it tries to use this function.

We'll need to adapt plugins and rebuild them.

Unfortunately I have a very busy work week ahead of me and
won't be able to do anything about it before next weekend.

Jérémy, could you maybe have a look?

This situation is further complicated by missing strutl.h in
libdebconfclient0-dev 0.129, which currently prevents plugins
from building against that version.
