Hi Lou,
i've had a few strange post install incidents in the last few months.
In this case i'd comment out the 'ucf' line.
Since it is only updateing or replaceing the config file, it is not
doing anything damaging to NOT do it. In one case I did a 'dpkg -i ' or
the previous version to fix the problem and then tryed to re-upgrade
with 'apt-get dist-upgrade' after things worked.
