This bug was fixed in the package ufw - 0.30pre1-0ubuntu2

---------------
ufw (0.30pre1-0ubuntu2) lucid; urgency=low

  * debian/postrm: adjust ordering of commands so that NFS mounted root
    filesystems can still access iptables. Thanks to Sebastian J. Bronner
    for discovering the issue and describing the fix. (LP: #524395)
  * merge fix from trunk for UnicodeDecodeError in get_status() (LP: #531886)
