I've just hit the same bug on Feisty Herd 5 with todays set of upgrades
(6/3/2007). Is there any other information I can supply to help get this
fixed?
I'm running Kubuntu Feisty Herd5. I tried running the updates by
clicking on the adept notifier icon and through the main adept manager
with ident
if [ $? -eq 1 ]; then
would probably be even better.
expr returns 1 if the result of expression is null or 0

I think I have found ('a' or 'the') bug:
---
validate_nice_value () {
_retval=1
# first, try to subtract number from itself to validate numeric input
# (expr is noisy, always throw away its output)
set +e
expr "$1" - "$1" > /dev/null 2>&1
if [ $? -ne 2 ]; then
# now check for valid
Seems like debconf template:
Template: x11-common/xwrapper/nice_value/error
Type: note
Description: Incorrect nice value
Please enter an integer between -20 and 19.

is being shown without template:
Template: x11-common/xwrapper/nice_value
Type: string
Description: Nice value for the X server:
Well, I don't know much about debconf and shell files.
But reading part of it, I 'feel' x11-common config script
is making it's own dialog and test for asking a nice value.
And it is not easy code, at least for me.
I attach extract_x11_common from the file
in previous comment.
** Attachment adde
I am hitting this bug right now on feisty updating x11-common
from 7.2-0ubuntu1 to I guess ...ubuntu2.
Here is an extract of my ps tree while having Debconf asking a
new priority (other debconf bug, there is no text entry to enter
a new priority):

I still see this error on Kubuntu Feisty Herd 4, regardless of whether I
set debconf method to "kde" or "dialog". It might be related to bug
69051, as my xorg.conf has changed, although my symptoms are like what's
reported here, not the partially blank debconf window they mention.

I can confirm this.
I did a
sudo dpkg-reconfigure debconf
and changed to "dialog" from "kde", selected "high", and then:
dpkg -f dist-upgrade
..seems to be working.

I should add this was on Edgy.
