FWIW,  I had trouble on the weekend going from etch to lenny as well.
Some of it was self-inflicted, so when I had this problem I assumed  
it was as well.

There was an error when it tried to configure exim4-daemon-light

My 'fix' was aptitude install postfix :-)   If I'd have known it  
wasn't my fault I'd have filed a bug.
