Upon reading the code, it appears that the first entry (current
directory) is taken from an installation-wide "conf_dir" setting. These
settings are defined in /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/diakonos/installation.rb.

This file should definitely be customized for Debian; it looks like
it has been left with the default settings for running diakonos out of
a working copy. Something like:

    :prefix   => '/usr',
    :bin_dir  => '/usr/bin',
    :doc_dir  => '/usr/share/doc/diakonos',
    :help_dir => '/usr/share/diakonos/help',
    :conf_dir => '/etc',
    :lib_dir  => '/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/diakonos',

Note that the help files are not currently installed by the package and
I don't really know what it needs doc for (it may not have anything to do
with /usr/share/doc).

Anyway, with these values corrected, diakonos sanely offers to copy the
config file from /etc rather than downloading one. This might not be
optimal, but it allows the program to run.
