[Bug 885442] Re: Unable to dump debconf database

[Colin Watson]

As far as I can tell, this was pilot error due to using that command on
a system that wasn't installed using debian-installer.  Dave's never
replied to confirm or deny that, but that's definitely the most likely
scenario anyway.  Feel free to open if you can show logs of this
happening on a system installed using debian-installer.
