[Impact]

 * Cannot use ucf to install templated configuration when using 
    dpkg-divert with the destination config file

 * Affects various packages including dovecot and any custom config
   packages using both config-package-dev and ucf

[Test Plan]

 * Create a config-package-dev based config-packagename.deb to replace 
existsing config
 
 * Include a line in the postinst in the config.deb to install a template 
   for a  config file also spcified in the displace file (which is therefore 
   diverted by dpkg-divert)

[Where problems could occur]

 * Any issue with patch may cause issues with packages installing config via ucf
   (this includes dovecot, openssh-server, php7.4, gdm3) 

[Other Info]
 
 * Tested with config-package-dev rolled config deb package
