I can't really speak for Debian, but it seems like some mistake slipped
into the package. According to the RPM package, the following should happen
automatically for the migration to the FHS-compatible package:
--- 8< ---
if ( [ -f /var/atlas-probe/etc/probe_key ] && ! cmp -s
/var/atlas-probe/etc/probe_key /etc/ripe-atlas/probe_key 1>/dev/null 2>&1 );
then
install -D -p -m 0600 -o ripe-atlas -g ripe-atlas
/var/atlas-probe/etc/probe_key /etc/ripe-atlas/probe_key 1>/dev/null 2>&1;
fi
if ( [ -f /var/atlas-probe/etc/probe_key.pub ] && ! cmp -s
/var/atlas-probe/etc/probe_key.pub /etc/ripe-atlas/probe_key.pub 1>/dev/null
2>&1 ); then
install -D -p -m 0644 -o ripe-atlas -g ripe-atlas
/var/atlas-probe/etc/probe_key.pub /etc/ripe-atlas/probe_key.pub 1>/dev/null
2>&1;
fi
if ( [ -f /var/atlas-probe/state/mode ] && ! cmp -s /var/atlas-probe/state/mode
/etc/ripe-atlas/mode 1>/dev/null 2>&1 ); then
install -D -p -m 0644 -o ripe-atlas -g ripe-atlas /var/atlas-probe/state/mode
/etc/ripe-atlas/mode 1>/dev/null 2>&1;
fi
if ( [ -f /var/atlas-probe/state/config.txt ] && ! cmp -s
/var/atlas-probe/state/config.txt /etc/ripe-atlas/config.txt 1>/dev/null 2>&1
); then
install -D -p -m 0644 -o ripe-atlas -g ripe-atlas
/var/atlas-probe/state/config.txt /etc/ripe-atlas/config.txt 1>/dev/null 2>&1;
fi
if ( [ -f /etc/ripe-atlas/probe_key ] &&
[ -f /etc/ripe-atlas/probe_key.pub ] &&
[ -f /etc/ripe-atlas/mode ] &&
[ -d /var/atlas-probe ] ); then
# NOTE: /etc/ripe-atlas/config.txt may not exist
# if /var/atlas-probe/state/config.txt did not either
rm -rf /var/atlas-probe
fi

I hope that I didn't make any mistakes when resolving the macros from the
spec file manually for this e-mail. In general, it's copying the old files
to the new FHS-conforming place and then removing the old /var/atlas-probe
tree.
Regards,
Robert
