I have tried to further investigate the problem and found that
ppp-udeb.postinst fails at line 168 which reads

   db_input high netcfg/get_hostname

The next interesting point is that eth0 is not configured at the time
ppp-udeb runs.  Seems like ppp-udeb is configured before netcfg.  Could
this be the reason for ppp-udeb.postinst to fail to find out the hostname?
