Thanks Michael! 
I changed "PACKAGES install" to "PACKAGES aptitude" and I am able to get
past that error.

Thanks,
Shekar

The problem is that you've probably got PACKAGES install lines in your
config
space. To cope with them, FAI requires the libapt-pkg-perl package. You
either
need to change your configs to use PACKAGES aptitude instead of PACKAGES
install, or hack make-fai-nfsroot to install libapt-pkg-perl into the
NFSROOT
before calling install_packages. 

This problem will be fixed in the next upload of FAI.

HTH,
Michael
