I've now uploaded versions of cdebconf and debconf that don't conflict,
and created a DEBCONF_USE_CDEBCONF environment variable to allow you to
test the cdebconf frontend (providing that you've set up a database,
etc.).

However, this bug is still useful to track the bugs that block us
switching to cdebconf as default and ultimately perhaps dropping
debconf, so I've left it open with an updated title.

Cheers,
