I would probably have worked if you had *purge*d cacti instead of 
removal. There's a question to remove the old database and all traces. 
If you would have done that, I'm convinced a fresh install would have 
worked fine.

I think really the problem in this bug report is that you had an extreme 
old cacti database on this system. Upgrading from before 0.8 isn't 
supported upstream, so neither can Debian cacti packages.
