For the record, I suggest something like this for recovery:

  dpkg-reconfigure debconf
          <select some frontend other than readline>
  dpkg --configure -a                 # recover from failed configurations
  apt-get install --reinstall sash    # recover from even worse corruption
  apt-get -t unstable install libterm-readline-gnu-perl  # fix basic problem
  dpkg-reconfigure debconf
          <select readline frontend again>
