Ok,then:
Look at /var/lib/dpkg/info/debconf.postinst
and see what's in that file-perhaps we can hack a fix from there.  The
postinstall script is what messed it up, and it's a hard hang.

Once we get that sorted out, we'll file a bug report with the maintainer,
but s/he has to know what the problem is...

I like rummaging.  I sometimes find pretty girls and free beer that way...
remember, it's only a bug, not a system-wide disaster.
