*** 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
Please inform the package maintainer about this problem.

I become really, really annoyed when someone makes a bug (without writing who he or she is, of course) in order to give me others troubles in order to make me and others terrorise the maintainer. I simply detest being inciting to trouble other people!!!!
Incidentally, it's a really good way to scare those who don't anything about IT from using ubuntu. Yes, make 10 more of these, and we have only the nerds left!
Thus bug should be removed from ucf immediately!!!
