Can you reproduce this? Otherwise I cannot see how this is happening.
Are you sure this is not a font problem or something wrong with your
terminal emulator? Marking appropriately for now.

You can use this test case:

  wget http://people.debian.org/~guillem/pkg-conff-prompt-0.deb
  dpkg -i pkg-conff-prompt-0.deb
  wget http://people.debian.org/~guillem/pkg-conff-prompt-1.deb
  dpkg -i pkg-conff-prompt-1.deb

this should give you a conffile prompt.

thanks,
guillem
