apt-get handles this fine, so it is possible.  I'm assuming it's something
along the lines of the following.

deconfigure e2fsprogs
deconfigure e2fslibs
unpack e2fslibs
configure e2fslibs
unpack e2fsprogs
configure e2fsprogs

If you don't need my system to stay in its current state for further
debugging, I can upgrade with apt-get and see what it does to verify.
