Title:
  Selecting "side-by-side differences" for modified configuration files
  does nothing

Status in debconf package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: debconf

  When upgrading (for example) grub via update-manager when a custom
  /etc/default/grub is present, a window is shown that allows the user
  to pick an action to carry on the file, including side-by-side and
  three-way diffs to aid taking decisions. For the last few times I've
  tried to use the diff options (which I always do, so I don't know
  about the other options), the dialogue simply closes and keeps my old
  /etc/default/grub. I think this has been an issue since lucid, and
  continues as of natty. This used to work fine in earlier releases.
