Bug Description

Binary package hint: debconf

I have Kubuntu 7.04 feisty fawn (herd 5), this was the second time it updated.
I updated using adept updater and early in installation it popped up a window and said:
"Debconf on plaa-Desktop
Incorrect nice value.
Please enter an integer between -20 and 19."
I could just press cancel and then adept said "Could not commit changes".
I don´t know if it matters but i had Amarok and Konversation running at the time of update.
I`m not sure if someone has already reported a bug like this, I didn`t find one, but if someone has then sorry, my bad.
EDIT. Oh, sorry I found another like this #87641...

I had the same problem with a fresh kubuntu herd 5 install, followed by an update. I have to click on cancel to be able to continue the update
