[Andrea Corbellini]

Shouldn't this bug be reported upstream or is there a reason why this
affects just Ubuntu?

** Description changed:

- If you have encountered this bug, please run:
+ Upgrading packages that use debconf sometimes fail with the following
+ error:
  
-   sudo fuser /var/cache/debconf/config.dat
- 
- for each of the shown process IDs, please run:
- 
-   pstree -alps $pid
- 
- and report the output to this bug.
