At debconf time only questions are asked (if dbconfig-common is
available), the configration happens at postinst time. The problem is
that dbconfig-common requires running server at postinst time, what can
not be guaranteed if phpmyadmin and mysql are installed together. For
some reason this bug has been reported about 30 times in Ubuntu while
only once in Debian.
