Update went fine. No errors were reported. But then I wanted to start DeepaMehta and got this message:
~$ sudo /home/jpn# /etc/init.d/deepamehta start /usr/lib/deepamehta/deepamehta-daemon not found
so I checked it:
~$ file /usr/lib/deepamehta/deepamehta-daemon /usr/lib/deepamehta/deepamehta-daemon: POSIX shell script text executable
and it was there. Then I checked permissions:
~$ ls -la /usr/lib/deepamehta/deepamehta-daemon -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 145 2011-10-26 18:47 /usr/lib/deepamehta/deepamehta-daemon
and to run it, I guess it must be executable. So I
~$ sudo chmod 755 /usr/lib/deepamehta/deepamehta-daemon
and then DeepaMehta started again.
You need to make /usr/lib/deepamehta/deepamehta-daemon executable - must be 755.
I think the setting of permissions has to be done explicitly in general.
Also I had the notion that the logfiles were deleted during update, which they should not. But I am not completely sure about that.

Fixed permissions and delete old conf files. This raised a new question: At the moment *every* package update will move the database to the backup. Shouldn't this only occur if necessary? (So be careful: Upgrading to deepamehta - 4.0.5-1ubuntu3 will backup your data...)

I upgraded to the latest version today. Update went fine, but now i am sure, that the logfiles are being deleted. This should only happen, when purging DeepaMehta with dpkg -P or a likewise apt based command. Not even sure, if other logfiles are removed when packages are just removed.
