> Reverting dash/sh to false in debconf works around the problem. Hi Andreas, I can't see how dash can cause this failure. The error from gtk+ is because the real uid does not match the effective uid, but I have no idea how dash should have changed either of them. Please check again whether it's really the change of /bin/sh, and also post the output of `ls -l /bin/dash`.
