If I were you, I fix debconf first.
You do not need X,... But without debconf, things are tough.
# apt-cache show debconf
Package: debconf
....
Version: 1.0.25
...
Depends: fileutils (>= 4.0-5)
Pre-Depends: perl-base (>= 5.6.1-4)
Recommends: apt-utils (>= 0.5.1)
Suggests: debconf-doc, debconf-utils, whiptail | dialog | gnome-utils, liblocale-gettext-perl, libterm-readline-gnu-perl, libgnome-perl
Conflicts: debconf-utils (<< 0.9), debconf-tiny, apt (<< 0.3.12.1), menu (<= 2.1.3-1), dialog (<< 0.9a-20000730-1), whiptail (<< 0.50.17-7), cdebconf (<< 0.10-5)

Now you know how to get. Now you know where to get :)
Make sure to have Depends: and Pre-Depends: are meat.
Cheers.
PS: Even if "dpkg" are broken, you can use "ar" and "tar" to open ".deb"
