Well, that says it: it's unpacked, but not configured. That's why
it probably works for package building (the files are there), but
it's not in the "installed" state.

Why apt-get install libacl1-dev wouldn't also cause the package
configuration to be run is beyond me though.

You should be able to fix that via:

dpkg --configure --pending

Did you see any messages about "Setting up libacl1-dev"? Or did apt
stop beforehand because of some other package and it never got to
that?
