Hi!
I've just subscribed because I have the same problem :)
I went a little deeper on the problem, and I find some more, so I'm asking
 for help before I mess it all up.

I have plucker installed from Debian SID. When I write "plucker-setup" it

gives me the same error:
>[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ plucker-setup
>
>Setting up Plucker  in /home/knoppix...
>
>Could not find config files
>[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$

I've run strace, and I've found this script is trying to access

to /usr/share/plucker/config:
>stat64("/usr/share/plucker/config", 0xbffff680) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or

directory)

>write(1, "Could not find config files\n", 28Could not find config files

But there is not any /usr/share/plucker directory!:
>[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -la /usr/share/plucker
>ls: /usr/share/plucker: No existe el fichero o el directorio

I looked at /usr/share/doc/plucker, and I found the typical "examples"
directory, and inside I found "home.html" and "exclusionlist.txt", some
plucker config files. So I tried a little trick, and I
soft-linked /usr/share/doc/plucker to /usr/share/plucker/
and /usr/share/doc/plucker/examples to /usr/share/plucker/config, and after
this I tried again "plucker-setup", and worked! :)

I think this is a debian problem, I'll tell package mantainers...
