reportbug should have included the config automatically. No idea why
this did not work.

Does not look too special, and it works with my test install.

This is update-exim4.conf failing. Does update-exim4.conf, called
directly from a root shell, give a meaningful error message?

Until now, I suspect that you said "yes, keep my local configuration"
to a dpkg conffile question, which left you with a exim4.conf.template
incompatible with the script magic introduced with exim4 4.67-3. This
is not supported and is not going to work.
See /usr/share/doc/exim4-config/NEWS.Debian.gz, paragraph 3 for 4.67-2.

Greetings
Marc
