"sudo aptitude reinstall ucf" solved my problem.
No need to take care about what follows (I began to answer before trying
it).
Thanks a lot and sorry for inconvenience.

I just tried to remove package that depends on gconf2-common (because of
this problem), and then I tried to reinstall ekiga and gparted.
$ dpkg -C
