Thanks for your bugreport.
Could you please try the intrepid dpkg version in
https://edge.launchpad.net/~mvo/+archive
It should fix the issue, its a bug with inconsistency in the dpkg triggers
database.
You will need to manually download it and then install it with dpkg -i
Thanks,
Michael

Status: Incomplete => In Progress
** Description changed:
manually run dpkg --configure -a does not help.
I am not able to install any packages.

+ TEST CASE:
+ 1. when the system is in incosistent state (e.g. because of bad xine update)
run: sudo dpkg --configure -a
+ 2. verify that it does not behave corretly anymore and errors out
+ 3. instal lthe updated version of dpkg (with wget and dpkg -i) [exact url
follows when the fix is published]
+ 4. verify that it installs correctly and runs some pending trigger actions
+ 5. run "sudo dpkg --configure -a" and verify that this works without error
