Try to take a look at the /var/lib/dpkg/info/perl.postinst file. It is executed where this message appears and (in the case of a shell skript) an: sh -x /var/lib/dpkg/info/perl.postinst may lead you to the source of the problem. At least the exact command where this error appears should be noticable. Torsten -- I haven't lost my mind -- it's backed up on tape somewhere.
