The X problem below caused the first apt run to fail with various parts of perl unpacked and not configured. Then it looks like debconf (which uses Iconv) was unable to run. Probably a dpkg --configure -a would have cleared this up; reinstalling perl manually had the same result. > dpkg told me the missing packages.
