Would you notice it instantly or only when you restart X? > > Do you have any backups of the /var/lib/dpkg/diversions file? > > Unfortunately not, I'm afraid.

If you can't give us a hint on how they might have disappeared from /var/lib/dpkg/diversions, there's not much we can do. dpkg itself when dealing with upgrades only uses /var/lib/dpkg/diversions in a read-only mode and there's no way a simple package upgrade would have resulted in the loss of those entries. Is there anything else that uses dpkg-divert and that could have resulted in this behaviour ? Maybe look around in /var/lib/dpkg/info/* for maintainer scripts (of local packages?) which could have some weird usage of dpkg-divert ? How did you put in place all your diversions, do you have script for this? Maybe it did not work as you thought it did.
