The error message suggests that your perl is missing Qt modules. First I'd run your prefered debian apt front end and see if there are any perl Qt packages to install.
OK, I've just installed libperl-qt.
Then you can try running the reconfigure again.
But now when I issue # dpkg-reconfigure noflushd I get this:
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified
dpkg-reconfigure: cannot connect to X server :0.0
I've also seen this kind of thing when trying to run X programs from a console in which I've su'ed to root. Any ideas what might be going on here?
