The last time someone reported a problem like this on the mailing list,
it was because the command had to run a subcommand which was not in
PATH.
In particular, `dpkg --configure' runs postinst scripts for packages
and these might do absolutely anything... at the very least I would
expect that /usr/sbin and /sbin probably need to be in PATH too :-)
