** Description changed:

+ TEST CASE:
+ - there is no trivial way to reproduce this as it only happens if in the 
middle of the upgrade libgtk2-perl becomes unavailable
+ - a regression test is sufficient
+ 
+ Regression Potential: 
+ - low, the worst that can happen is that the terminal gets expanded during 
the upgrade when this is not needed
+ 
  I was doing an upgrade from Oneiric to Precise and the machine hung in
  the process. There was a dialog somewhere in the background that I
  didn't see:
  
  debconf: unable to initialize frontend: Gnome
  debconf: (Unable to load Gtk -- is libgtk2-perl installed?)
  debconf: falling back to frontend: Dialog
