Because 0.056-3 is the second release which provides a permissions.rules
file, so you did not test the upgrade procedure (but still, I see no
reason why it should fail).
But are you sure that you had a version older than the one in
stable/testing installed before you upgraded and experienced the
problem? If you had not it means that permissions.rules was already
installed by the 0.056-2 or 0.056-3 upgrade.

No, this is a design choice: the package never tries to modify a
configuration modified by the local admin, unless a new file is
introduced.
