You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Step to reproduce:
  try to install package with debconf wizard (in my case, via double click on third-party Debian package)

Current result:
 After long time installation fails.

Expected:
 Dialog is appear and a instalation is succesful. 


Workaround is to use just command line or install libgtk2-perl and then the installation via software-centrum doesn't fail.
