Great, it really fixes all issues I could reproduce earlier. I have tested "apt-get --reinstall install x11-comon" as well as "dpkg --purge --force-depends x11-common; apt-get install x11-common". >> P.S. any idea why this has never caused problems before?

I found that I prefer the GTK frontend over the dialog frontend, which I used initially. And I understood the question of proper debconf wording better now that I use a graphical frontend. When I installed etch on this machine, I decided to give KDE a try, just for playing (but I think I still like GTK better). By the way, you wrote earlier that there's a bug in libqt-perl(?) and your fix is only a workaround - should this be reported separately?
