The saga continues:
Since any apt-get action ends in
Setting up debconf (1.4.30.13) ...

I checked the sanity of this Python source;
on a sane system:
$ md5sum /usr/lib/python2.3/compileall.py
fc8159171507a474468f41270ff20f74 /usr/lib/python2.3/compileall.py
and on the sick system:
$ md5sum /usr/lib/python2.3/compileall.py
fc8159171507a474468f41270ff20f74 /usr/lib/python2.3/compileall.py
So, the source is okay.
Can I compile it manually ?:
# python /usr/lib/python2.3/compileall.py
Listing /usr/lib/python2.3 ...
Compiling /usr/lib/python2.3/quopri.py ...

I cannot; meaning that ? what ? Is python broken ?
If yes, how to reinstall it without using apt / dpkg (which cannot be
used, because debconf is broken - the circular effect ! ) ??
