"Missing" is a valid state for a configuration file, so if this package was installed, and those onf files removed, dpkg will rmember this. You can try installing with dpkg -i --force-confmiss /path/to/deb . That will install all conffiles, even if it thinks they are supposed to be missing. Alternately, you can extract them and copy over, but I think the first way is cleaner. HTH, Steve -- Hear about the Californian terrorist that tried to blow up a bus? Burned his lips on the exhaust pipe.
