Thanks for your report.

The error is

Merging changes into the new version
 Conflicts found! Please edit `/etc/ejabberd/ejabberd.cfg' and sort them out manually.
 The file `/etc/ejabberd/ejabberd.cfg.ucf-new' has a record of the failed merge of the configuration file.
dpkg: error processing ejabberd (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3

The cause of the failure is the 3 way merge option of ucf.

Affecting to ejabberd and adding and ucf task.
