Yeap, I can see, where the problem is. The init.d script is actually
forcing the dbpath by running mongodb as
/usr/bin/mongod --dbpath /var/lib/mongodb --logpath
/var/log/mongodb/mongodb.log --config /etc/mongodb.conf run
I have to dig a bit into history, but I think that this was actually
added to prevent basic misconfigurations. This is definitely veritable
in /etc/default. I'll describe it in README or take value from config
file.

This is actually correct behavior as the actual server resides in
mongodb-server package:
root@bob:~# dpkg -L mongodb-server | wc -l
27
root@bob:~#
Cheers,
