~$ cat libpaper.lg
+ test -x /usr/share/texmf/texconfig/tcfmgr
+ . /usr/share/debconf/confmodule
++ '[' '!' '' ']'
++ PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1
++ export PERL_DL_NONLAZY
++ '[' '' ']'
++ exec /usr/share/debconf/frontend /etc/libpaper.d/texlive-base
debconf: DbDriver "passwords" warning: could not open

Rerun sudo
~$ cat libpaper.lg
+ test -x /usr/share/texmf/texconfig/tcfmgr
+ . /usr/share/debconf/confmodule
++ '[' '!' '' ']'
++ PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1
++ export PERL_DL_NONLAZY
++ '[' '' ']'
++ exec /usr/share/debconf/frontend /etc/libpaper.d/texlive-base
No paper known with height 297mm and width 210mm
Maybe height and width have been exchanged?
