Ufraw is build with libexif support. Unfortunately, libexif supports only major RAW file formats and not even them completely. The new support based on exiv2 is kind of unstable. It works kind of fine with pictures from the bigger companies but leave others with _crashing_ applications here and there, which is why it is not acceptable in the major package IMHO.
