Thanks for the info, Bertrand. What I mean by wordlists are not ispell dictionaries but packages like wamerican, wfrench and similar packages, containing plain wordlists. wamerican is standard, so it is presumably in your system unless you explicitely decided to remove it. According to your log, debconf seems to think there is no wordlist installed, but I guess that is not true. Please look at /usr/share/dict contents and report installed wordlist contents there. If debconf database is correct, you can look for the list of installed wordlists according to debconf by running $ echo metaget shared/packages-wordlist owners | debconf-communicate Besides a warning about /var/cache/debconf/passwords.dat, this should ine a list like 0 wamerican, wbrazilian, wcatalan, wfaroese, wgalician-minimos, wngerman, wnorwegian, wportuguese, wspanish, wswiss containing return code and a list of installed wordlists. If above list is empty (just return code) and some wordlists are actually installed, problem may be caused by the debconf database corruption I mentioned in my other mail. If so, running /usr/share/debconf/fix_db.pl as root should refresh your debconf database, and make an option be offered when dictionaries-common is configured. The only other reason I can think to cause this problem is a package having explicitly unregistered shared/packages-wordlist question, but that is really unlikely.
