Package: ucf
Version: 2.0020
Severity: normal
Hi,
ucfq apparently fails to report whether a configuration file was
changes; the corresponding field is always empty.
For example:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ucfq tex-common
Configuration file Package Exists Changed
/etc/texmf/texmf.d/05TeXMF.cnf tex-common Yes
/etc/texmf/texmf.d/15Plain.cnf tex-common Yes
/etc/texmf/texmf.d/45TeXinputs.cnf tex-common Yes
/etc/texmf/texmf.d/55Fonts.cnf tex-common Yes
/etc/texmf/texmf.d/65BibTeX.cnf tex-common Yes
/etc/texmf/texmf.d/75DviPS.cnf tex-common Yes
/etc/texmf/texmf.d/85Misc.cnf tex-common Yes
/etc/texmf/texmf.d/90TeXDoc.cnf tex-common Yes
/etc/texmf/texmf.d/95NonPath.cnf tex-common Yes
/etc/texmf/updmap.d/00updmap.cfg tex-common Yes
I think this bug renders the ucfq program close to useless.
Cheers,
Nicolas

Description:
ucf - Update Configuration File: preserve user changes to config files.
Closes: 424926 456241 456245 460868 464238
Changes:
ucf (3.005) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Bug fix: "ucfq /path/to/file is broken", thanks to Niko Tyni. Applied
the patch provided in the report. Closes: #460868
* Of course, this did not mean that the modified column was actually
filled with valid values: A number of places we were not using the
proper accessor methods, which added to the confusion. Fixed.
Closes: #464238
* Add a new --debconf-template option to specify an alternate
caller-provided debconf template for the user prompt. Heavy lifting
done by Steve Langasek. This was apparently done to allow grub in
Ubuntu to manage partial file fragments. Closes: #456241.
* Use db_x_loadtemplatefile instead of debconf-loadtemplates for template
loading, and depend on debconf (>= 1.5.19) | cdebconf for the
implementation. Thanks to Steve Langasek. Closes: #424926
* Drop the Recommends: debconf-utils now that it's no longer used.
* Instead of proceeding merrily on our way if the three way merge fails,
we now leave the dest file unchanged, leave the mess in the new file
(foo.ucf-new), tell the user about it, and abort the upgrade by
exiting with exit 3. We still psit out an error about conflicts.
Hopefully, this adequately resolves the bug. Closes: #456245
