Hi Steve,

The problem was  repeatable - couldn't update for a few days; 
What I did: (not a claimed valid workaround) killed the process,
rebooted several times, 
ran apt-get update /upgrade yesterday.
Text-box dialogs came up, with same results, so I killed the process.

then today Update Manager didn't complain ... ?!

Debconf results:
root@tom-laptop:/home/tom# debconf-show debconf libpam-runtime
  debconf-apt-progress/preparing:
  libpam-runtime/override: false
* libpam-runtime/profiles: unix, gnome-keyring, consolekit

Will be back on-line after Scout camp this weekend.  For those of you
who also run these things, you know what that means.

Cheers, and thanks for dealing with this.
