On "Jessie" I'm trying to "dpkg-reconfigure vsftpd" in order to change FTP
root directory. In the corresponding dialog I enter new path but it does not
apply and the following appears on the console:

    vsftpd user (ftp) already exists, doing nothing.

Hello Dmitry,

thank you for spending your time helping to make Debian better with this
bug report.

I have checked the templates file. It looks ok. So I think the error
comes from debconf.

I disagree with re-assigning this bug. The problem is clearly in vsftpd but
not necessary in the template.
