i'm not sure i understand the problem.  dbconfig-common should prompt the
user for the root password.  if the root password has changed, dbconfig-common
should notice the failure with the old password (if it's stored in debconf)
and prompt for a new password.  or at least that's the desired behavior.  what
problem are you having exactly?
