Package: bambam
Version: 0.4.dfsg-2
Severity: grave
Tags: upstream
Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer,
When launching the bambam executable, it immediately fails due to a
missing directory. The missing directory is /usr/bin/data/ which does
not exist on my machine. I am unsure what Debian Policy says about
sucha directory and its appropriateness in /usr/bin but in any case,
it either needs to be created by the package (since this is liekly to
happen to others) or it needs to be placed somewhere else.
Regards,
Jeremiah

I've cleaned up my file system by removing what likely was an older
bambam binary. I've purged the original package and re-installed and
everything works accordingly. Closing.
Thanks for your help Gregor.
