I saw this same problem, and reported on it. The problem seems to be
caused by the failure of "perl-base" to be correctly installed. (I'm
not a dpkg expert so I could be wrong)
In the meantime, using the 1.3 disks and autoup will work, sort of. I
found that I had to create the "/var/lib/dpkg/methods/ftp" directory by
hand before dselect would use the ftp method. I then installed the
dpkg-http method and all went well after that.
