True. But then, in most languages this can be worked around by using
different phrase constructions. For example, the above could be
formulated as

La configuration du paquet "${pkg}" sera modifiée.

Which would get you rid of the inflection (if I'm not mistaken; my
French has never been very good ;-)

Of course, this is a workaround, not a fix. It'd be nice if debconf were
to get ngettext, or something that works similar.

Oh well.
