[Pkg-cacti-maint] Bug#743727: cacti: Updating cacti to 0.8.8b+dfsg-4 returns error

[Sebastian Mares]

Package: cacti
Version: 0.8.8b+dfsg-4
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I attempted to update my cacti installation from 0.8.8b+dfsg-3 to 0.8.8b+dfsg-4
using apt-get upgrade and the installation failed with the subprocess returning
error code 2 in cacti --configure.

Cheers,
Sebastian
