  The only reference I can find to this is bug #443179 against ucf.  But
that was fixed ages ago, in 3.003.  I think that message is from ucf
line 956:

                        echo "Error: unknown response from debconf:'$RET'" >&2

  The only way that I can see of getting this from the code, though, is
after the non-debconf prompt for a merge.  You'd have to answer
something other than one of the known options (which makes the comment
about debconf a bug IMO).  That's not what's happening either, so I'm a
little puzzled.

  This is grasping at straws, but you *do* have ucf 3.007, or at least 3.006,
installed, right?
