I gather the offending debconf package has now been fixed, however, for
the future if you delete the file from /var/cache/apt/archives, come

available'.

Greetings everyone. I'm having a problem trying to install debconf.
I just did a full upgrade to potato this evening. I then tried to
install a new package (everybuddy) that relied on debconf. When
apt-get went to install debconf I got the error:
HAL9000:/var/cache/apt/archives# dpkg -i debconf
