I'm not sure why you insist in keeping that feature working while
it has been said that the recovery tools do create the needed directories
by themselves.

Anyway, when can we see a fix for this?

At the very least, you should disable the check by default... because
it's too likely that users will get annoyed and the number of comments
and people reopening that bug make it obvious that this is the case.

I'm raising the severity because it would be nice to see it fixed
for wheezy.

Thank you for your work on this core package!

Cheers,
