Bug Description

I used the latest Raspbian OS image (dated 2012-08-16). After the raspi-config is launched, I selected the option to change the keyboard layout. I normally use the Dvorak layout. Selecting the "setup keyboard layout" option, I lot of errors start scrolling over the screen for about a 1-2 minutes.

  "Use of uninitialized value $value in substitution /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/Format/822.pm line 65"

This line gets repeated over and over for 1-2 minutes. Then eventually it pops up with a dialog that says there was some error. I select OK (the only option), and then it returns me to the main menu of raspi-config.

I used to use the Debian 6 "wheezy" image dated 2012-06-17, which came pre-installed on a 4GB SD card I purchased from Farnell, and in that image the setting up of a keyboard layout worked perfectly.
