Reverted to pre update state (using partimage) and attempted to reinstall all the current packages.
this produced an error highlighting a possible circular dependency "pre-depend debconf-2.0 for libpam-modules". Also noticed that can not reinstall debconf and debconf-i18n at the same time as this yields an error "E: Could not perform immediate configuration on 'debconf-i18n'. Please see man 5 apt.conf under APT::Immediate-Configure for details. (2)", though both can be configured separately. This produces the following errors in the apt logs
