Subject: ucf: Ucf needs root access to display the help message
Package: ucf
Version: 2.002
Severity: minor
Hello,
When I try to get the help message from ucf as a standard user, I get
this error message:
$ ucf --help=20
debconf: DbDriver "passwords" warning: could not open /var/cache/debconf/=
passwords.dat: Permission non accord=E9e
debconf: DbDriver "config": could not write /var/cache/debconf/config.dat=
-new: Permission non accord=E9e
$
and no help message. If I connect as root, everything works.
Greetings,
Fred

Description:
ucf - Update Configuration File: preserves user changes to config files
Closes: 331290 332239 334800
Changes:
ucf (2.003) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Bug fix: "ucf: Update of the french translation of the debconf
templates", thanks to Eric (Closes: #331290).
* Bug fix: "ucf: [INTL:sv] Swedish debconf templates translation",
thanks to Daniel Nylander (Closes: #334800).
* Bug fix: "ucf: Needs root access to display the help message", thanks
to Frédéric Bothamy. Allow ucf to be run as non-root. This entailed
not loading debconf related stuff, since that seems to require root
privileges. Instead, we just emit a diagnostic and go on. Hopefully
this is enough to let the user know when debconf does not work as
expected. Also, if ucf is not running as root, automatically
transition into the no-action mode, so a non-root user can still be
able run ucf in diagnostic mode. (Closes: #332239).
* Added a note to the man page that --purge does not touch the
configuration file on disk -- cleaning that up is still the calling
package's responsibility.
