[Bug 103240] update/dist-upgrade wants user interaction but adept can't provide it

[Daimonion]

Public bug reported:

Sometimes on updating the packages with adept it can happen that the
updater (dpkg) wants a userintraction to acknowledge writing a file. The
last time i had this problem was this morning as i updated a kubuntu
feisty to actual state.

Dpkg (think it's running as kind of adept)  wants to write the file /etc/udev/rules.d/25-smperm... (it's not the correct name. i forgot it.) but on my pc was a modified version. (don't know who modified it)
dpkg displayed a dialog to acknowledge writing the new file or deny to hold the old one.

In adept the update faild with a failure window. In konsole and with apt-get upgrade the dialog appears and i could give an answer (y) to acknowledege overwriting the file.
I think there is a general problem in adept. Maybe the failure exists in Synaptics too.

Hint: Build the konsole in adept to a full featured konsole with a
prompt if needed.
