Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: cron

Hello, there,

If I start a terminal and type in the following command:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow  cron 

I get the following reply:
stop: Unknown instance: 
dpkg-maintscript-helper: error: couldn't identify the package

This is bad since it makes the following command abort prematurely: 
dpkg-reconfigure -a
