This is the file that dpkg could not find before when it wanted to
configure libxml-sax-perl. The "dpkg -l libxml-namespacesupport-perl"
output suggests that libxml-namespacesupport-perl was already installed,
therefore I do not fully understand why the file could not be found - I
am not an expert on perl packaging, though; what I advised you to do was
just the equivalent of finding loose threads and pulling on them until
the knot was unraveled. In any case, explicitly asking dpkg to install
libxml-namespacesupport-perl again seems to have fixed the issue.

Something does need a slap, but I do not think it is ldconfig.
AFAICT, libfwbuilder.so.7 should belong to the libfwbuilder7 package and
it should be installed in /usr/lib/ as a symlink to
/usr/lib/libfwbuilder.so.7.3(.0).
It would be important to find out how /lib/libfwbuilder.so.7 came to
your system. What output do you get for
dpkg -S libfwbuilder.so.7
dpkg -l libfwbuilder7
?
