Package: boxes
Version: 1.0.1a-2.1
Severity: normal


If you start a fresh installed `boxes', it crashes with the message:
  boxes: Alleged system-wide config file '/etc/boxes' is a directory

This is because debian/dirs creates /etc/boxes and debian/rules copies
the boxes-config _into_ /etc/boxes.

You get the program working, simply put /etc/boxes/boxes-config to
/etc/boxes.


I appended a patch, that probably fixes a part of the problem, but I
think, a closer look is needed.

This problem was mentioned in bug #374490 as well.
