I started having this problem
about two weeks ago. It's possible it was caused by and apt-get upgrade to
something newer. But both my desktop and laptop are running the same versions of
packages. Before this problem started I had been running debuild with no errors.
This is on my laptop.
debuild kdelibs-3.3.1
unstable
dh_gencontrol
dh_md5sums
dh_builddeb
dpkg-deb: conffile
`/etc/debian/kdelibs-bin/etc/kde3/khotnewstuffrc' does not appear in
package
dpkg-deb: building package `kdelibs-bin' in
`../kdelibs-bin_3.3.1-3.1_i386.deb'.
dh_builddeb: command returned error code
512

now
my desktop conffile is '/etc/kde3/khotnewstuffrc'
this is debuild

failed!
my desktop conffile is '/etc/kde3/ksircrc'
Now I am sorry
but I am new to this but it seems it's adding /etc/debian/"name of package"
before the actual /etc/kde3
Anyone know what might be causing this or how
to fix it? It also happens with kdebase or anything else for that
matter.
thanks for your time
