ANSWER:
This error typically occurs during the initial phase of a DupeBlocker key rebuild as all of the existing keys are being deleted. The record keys need an "update" but are deleted before the update executes. This error can be ignored as the key for the record(s) in question should be rebuilt by the key building process.
