ok, so i am running debian unstable, and it had been a while since my last apt-get upgrade.  I did this, and everything goes fine except xserver-vga (it was version 3.x trying to be replaced with 4.x i think).
 
the error it gives is that there is no config file on line 37 of /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/Db.pm
 
so you try removing it and it says the package is in a very inconsitent state, and should be reinstalled before being removed.  you try reinstalling and find yourself going in circles.
 
i cant install it, cant configure it, cant remove it, cant purge it, etc, even with --force-xxxx.
 
anyone have any idea how to solve this? 
 
jason
