Thank you for your report.  I have looked over your log, and it appears that
your system was in an inconsistent state *before* the upgrade.  libnewt0.52
is a dependency of whiptail in both lenny and squeeze, and there is no
mention in your apt log of the libnewt0.52 package being removed (or even
upgraded) prior to this failure.

Please check that the libnewt0.52 package is properly installed on your
system and install it if not.
