Hi, When debugging a particular case for dictionaries-common #751367 I am getting a similar error message when trying to recover from an installation error by reinstalling the package. wbritish here is unconfigured because of a previous error that should no longer happen when reinstalling, but that will still happen when trying to configure again, and # apt-get install --reinstall wbritish fails with E: Internal Error, No file name for wbritish:amd64 Not sure if this always happens when trying to reinstall a package that is not yet configured because of an error, but looks like that. In this particular case nothing depends on wbritish, so I can simply remove and reinstall. Found with wheezy apt, but still happens after upgrading apt to sid version.
