[Pkg-cacti-maint] Bug#655298: cacti: maintainer scripts fail to use --debconf-ok

[admin73dpi at pe350.73dpi.com]

Package: cacti
Version: 0.8.7b-2.1+lenny4
Severity: normal

I've just installed the latest security upgrade for cacti and during the
upgrade, I saw the following warning messages:

dbconfig-common: writing config to /etc/dbconfig-common/cacti.conf
*** 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
             old-style, non-debconf prompting. Ugh!

             Please inform the package maintainer about this problem.
