Maybe it *is* a problem of Python ?
(Though I have no clue where Python is called)

I did a debconf reconfigure and find

-rw-r--r--  1 root root 4820 2005-07-15 11:48 /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/debconf.pyc
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 4820 2005-07-15 11:48 /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/debconf.pyo

-rw-r--r--  1 root root 72808 2005-07-15 11:48 /var/cache/debconf/config.dat
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 72812 2005-07-15 11:47 /var/cache/debconf/config.dat-old
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 2708446 2005-07-15 11:47 /var/cache/debconf/templates.dat
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 2708446 2005-07-15 11:40 /var/cache/debconf/templates.dat-old

as changed files on a sane system,
using
# for files in `locate debconf`; do ls -l $files | grep 2005-07-15 ; done

On the sick system I find

-rw-r--r--  1 root root   74232 2005-07-15 11:51 config.dat
-rw-r--r--  1 root root   74232 2005-07-15 11:28 config.dat-old
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 2941851 2005-07-15 11:51 templates.dat
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 2941851 2005-07-15 11:28 templates.dat-old
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 74232 2005-07-15 11:51 /var/cache/debconf/config.dat
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 74232 2005-07-15 11:28 /var/cache/debconf/config.dat-old
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 2941851 2005-07-15 11:51 /var/cache/debconf/templates.dat
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 2941851 2005-07-15 11:28 /var/cache/debconf/templates.dat-old

Meaning, the .pyc and .pyo cannot be created or are not being created.

Actually, there is none on the whole system:
# locate debconf.py
/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/debconf.py

# python
Python 2.3.5 (#2, May  4 2005, 08:51:39)
[GCC 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-12)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>>

So, python itself looks okay.


Anyone out there to help me further ?
