This is due to the installer holding a lock on debconf. We normally
work around this by using an in-memory database, but that will mean any
debconf questions will be skipped. We could wire something up with
passthrough -- though debconf dialogs in the middle of the install is
pretty hideous -- or, perhaps we should copy the debconf database as
part of apt-clone as well.
