Bug#247849: Error in tetex-extra/Question.pm (was: Bug#247849: dpkg segfault and internal debconf error with ucf-using package)

in the meantime we found out that the error you reported is probably
caused by a corrupted debconf database. Could you please test this?

Do you think we can close the bug, or should we investigate the cause?
