The underlying problem is that debconf is not working in that apt run.
It's definitely not a dpkg bug. In fact it looks like a user problem
where the update is run without X support while debconf requires it.
Possibly an old update-manager or debconf problem.
** Changed in: dpkg (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Invalid
