Hi,
What were the versions of ucf and debconf on the machine when
that error occurred? (the aptitude or dpkg logs might help there). How
were you performing the upgrade? Because this does not seem like a bug
in ucf.
libpaper depends on debconf (>= 1.3.22) | debconf-2.0, ucf (>= 0.28)
ucf depends on debconf (>= 1.5.19) | cdebconf
So, by the time we are running the postinst in libpaper1,
a) debconf must have been unpacked and configured
b) ucf must have been unpacked and configured
If that is the case, db_x_loadtemplatefile should have been
present, as long as the dependency in ucf is accurate. Looking at
debconf:
,----
| debconf (1.5.19) unstable; urgency=low
|
| * Add a hack to the teletype frontend to allow typing "q" at a "[More]"
| prompt and break out of the 'pager'. Useful when ucf's diff turns out
| to be many many pages in length. There's no UI indication that "q" works
| here, but it's the same as in other pagers like less.
| * Add (experimental, nonstandard) implementation of the X_LOADTEMPLATEFILE
| protocol command. Should be compatible with cdebconf's. Closes: #427091

So, ucf has the proper dependency. Also, ucf is not used in the
.config file of libpaper1, only in the postinst.
This smells like a bug in the process, or perhaps in
dpkg. However, it is hard to tell, since there is so little detail in
the bug report.
