I'd put my money on some debconf breakage (the only Depends all those
packages have at common), but [1] claims that the most recent debconf
migration to testing happened a month ago.
Next most possible candidate is a perl-base, but if [2] is to be
trusted, perl migration to testing was more than a month ago too.
So a conspiracy idea does not seem that weird. On the contrary, it would
look absolutely hilarious in the light of the news such as [3].
Or it might be broken Debian mirror that OP's using.
