After sending this patch, I discovered this rule given in the Debconf Programmer's Tutorial: "Note that the config script is run before the package is unpacked. It should only use commands that are in essential packages." But in the patch I submitted (part 0002), I used augtool in debian/radicale.config to parse the ini-file config and read current settings from disk. So that is a problem for the 0002 and 0003 patches above. Patch 0001, which only adds ucf to improve merging changes to the config, should still be ok.
