It seems to be an incompatibility between debconf and  libgtk2-perl.
Workarounds:
- downgrading the package "debconf" to 1.5.32ubuntu3 (maverick) - this version 
seems to call libgnome2-perl instead of calling directly libgtk2-perl;
- uninstalling libgtk2-perl - debconf fails to initiate the Gnome frontend and 
falls back automatically to the Dialog frontend.

In the changelog for package "debconf", the following is mentioned:

debconf (1.5.36ubuntu3) natty; urgency=low

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * Debconf/FrontEnd/Gnome.pm: Port from Gnome2::Druid to Gtk2::Assistant.
    Original patch by Jani Monoses, thanks! (LP: #415038)
  * Debconf/Element/Gnome/Select.pm: Drop unused Gnome2 import.
  * debian/control: Change libgnome2-perl suggestion to libgtk2-perl
    accordingly.

Could this be the problem?
