tags 687857 + patch thanks I've prepared an NMU patch for linux-atm (versioned as 1:2.5.1-1.5). It seems that the postinst for libatm1-dev wrongly refered to /usr/share/doc/atm-tools, so like the postinst for atm-tools itself.
I have not yet done any further action but can upload the NMU. Regards, Salvatore
