Troubleshooting • Re: debconf errors are impacting all package operations

$

The other day, following my regular process of installing package updates, Plex media server was not starting, and I began the journey of troubleshooting that's basically led me to run around in circles. One consistent thing I'm seeing is this error message during basically any package install I attempt:

debconf: Problem setting up the database defined by stanza 7 of /etc/debconf.
driver type not specified (perhaps you need to re-read debconf.conf(5)) at share/perl5/Debconf/Db.pm line 35, <DEBCONF_CONFIG> chunk 7.

No idea what this means. Can't find anything that resembles this error message via googling I've done. Any suggestions for how this might be resolved?

As background for trying to help you troubleshoot:

What model of RPi board?

What Operating System is it running?

What did you routinely do as "my regular process of installing package updates"
