workaround:
---
temporarily add
overwrite-local = 1
to /etc/python/debian_config.
result:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo dpkg --configure -a
Setting up gdebi-core (0.3.6) ...

thanks for the tip. kept running into this issue trying to ugprade from
dapper > hardy - it bombed out the update-manager and kept causing dpkg
--configure -a to eventually fail due to too many errors. simple adding
of a line to /etc/python/debian_config fixed it! now, why it doesn't
automatically
see bug 204526
This bug was fixed in the package python-central - 0.6.5ubuntu1
