Debian Testing on i386 Here's the problem...
Preparing to replace debconf 0.5.59 (using debconf_0.5.59_i386.deb) ... Unpacking replacement debconf ... Setting up debconf (0.5.59) ... Use of reserved word "our" is deprecated at /usr/lib/perl5/Debconf/Gettext.pm line 19. Bareword "our" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at /usr/lib/perl5/Debconf/Gettext.pm line 19.

Array found where operator expected at /usr/lib/perl5/Debconf/Gettext.pm line 19, at end of line (Do you need to predeclare our?)
