Public bug reported:

When upgrading to oneiric with sane-utils and rlinetd installed:


Setting up sane-utils (1.0.22-2ubuntu2) ...
*** 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.
Need debconf to interact
dpkg: error processing sane-utils (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2


The problem is that sane-utils.postinst activates debconf and then calls 
update-inetd, which in turn calls ucf in an unsupported way.  As it is, I 
cannot upgrade to oneiric with rlinetd and any package with a similar postinst 
script to that of sane-utils installed.

** Affects: rlinetd (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Summary changed:

- sane-utils ucf invocation error in postinst script
+ rlinetd's update-inetd fails if invoked from a maint script using debconf
