The mistake I made this time was that I took te manual page of
debconf on a installed computer and assumed that D-I does have readline
also as default. But for space reason are the needed files for that left
out in Debian-Installer.

It was the DEBIAN_FRONTEND=text that tricked me. 'text' is not known to
debconf as frontend.  Where did you read that 'text' should work?
I want to replace that "information" with `debconf/framebuffer=false`.
