You have a locally compiled perl in /usr/local, but you need to ensure
that the Debian perl packages are still used when running package
maintainer scripts, or they won't be able to find Debianized perl
modules like those in debconf. Removing /usr/local/bin from $PATH is
probably the easiest approach.
