Hello,
I am forwarding a bug in Debian regarding dicoweb, the problem is that
settings.py is both a conf file & python module, hence I cannot put it
in /etc (where a conf file should exist) because the rest of python
files won't find it! Yet when I put in /usr/share/dicoweb, and then
users edit it to configure their settings, that file would get
overwritten on the next package upgrade of dicoweb.

Package: dicoweb
Version: 2.0-7
Severity: Serious
Coin,
The configuration file '/usr/share/dicoweb/settings.py' is not in /etc
and not a conffile (in the dpkg meaning), so, besides being in a weird
location and bothering users, it will be overwritten each time this
package is upgraded ; this is a violation of the Debian Policy.
Please fix this as soon as possible, to ensure this package is not
removed in Squeeze.
Regards.
