Package: privoxy
Version: 3.0.7-1
Severity: important

Upgrading from v3.0.6-4 fails:

    % dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/privoxy_3.0.7-1_i386.deb 
    (Reading database ... 206462 files and directories currently installed.)
    Preparing to replace privoxy 3.0.7-1 (using .../privoxy_3.0.7-1_i386.deb)

    dpkg: error processing privoxy (--install):
     subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
    Errors were encountered while processing:

A look at '/var/log/privoxy/logfile' shows:

    Dec 14 02:45:42.979 Privoxy(b7db86b0) Info: Privoxy version 3.0.7
    Dec 14 02:45:42.979 Privoxy(b7db86b0) Info: Program name: /usr/sbin/privoxy
    Dec 14 02:45:42.979 Privoxy(b7db86b0) Fatal error: can't load actions file 
'/etc/pr
ivoxy/standard': No such file or directory. Note that beginning with Privoxy 
3.0.7,
 actions files have to be specified with their complete file names.

It says a file is missing, and it is:

    % ls -l /etc/privoxy/standard 
    ls: /etc/privoxy/standard: No such file or directory

    # try a wildcard
    % ls -l /etc/privoxy/standard*
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5986 May 19  2007 /etc/privoxy/standard.action

Perhaps some script is mistakenly looking for '/etc/privoxy/standard' 
instead of '/etc/privoxy/standard.action'?

In the meantime, downgrading to v3.0.6-4 works OK.

Hope this helps...
