Package: ucf
Version: 3.0025+nmu2
Severity: important

Hi

rlinetd's version of update-inetd uses ucf without passing --debconf-ok
flag. The debconf-ok flag cannot be uses since update-inetd has no idea
if it's safe to use debconf or not (if maintainer script could call
db_stop before in which case passing debconf-ok causes ucf to hang).

Anyway, ucf used to display a warning and switch to old prompting when 
--debconf-ok 
was missing, but now it displays the same warning and then fails.

Setting up dictd (1.12.0+dfsg-4.1) ...
*** WARNING: ucf was run from a maintainer script that uses debconf, but
             the script did not pass --debconf-ok to ucf. The maintainer
             script should be fixed to not stop debconf before calling ucf,
             and pass it this parameter. For now, ucf will revert to using
             old-style, non-debconf prompting. Ugh!

             Please inform the package maintainer about this problem.
