I had a similar problem yesterday upgrading from potato to woody. The way I solved it was by installing individually the packages which I thought might be broken: apt-get install debconf apt-get install perl until I was able to fix the broken component and complete the unpacking, installing, and setting up of apt-get dist-upgrade. I did it by trial and error (try whatever sequence you prefer) until things started working again. Good luck, -- Giulio Morgan [EMAIL PROTECTED]
