Good question - I did several things at once and I don't know which helped. Sorry, I'm not sure which of these measured really helped. :-( I fear I've been "the" typical user in this regard.... - I waited a few days before trying to upgrade again, as my system was still running, I had to rely on it for a few days and didn't want to mess it up completely during that time. - I manually downgraded dpkg, which worked to my surprise. - I'm not sure if I did anything else which could have affected the upgrade. Maybe I also manually configured a bunch of packages with problematic dependencies for removal using aptitude. When I upgraded the system one or two weeks later using the older dpkg version, the upgrade succeeded. Maybe updated perl packages fixed something?
