Hi Ryo,

yesterday I spent some time on this issue and also contacted Aurelien
Jarno who is the maintainer of libsensors.

I could determine the following things:

1) sensors.conf and sensors3.conf are different files. sensors.conf is
the configuration file for libsensors, while sensors3.conf is for the
newer version of the same library. Thus the bug is not that xsensors
searches at the wrong place, but that it does not exist.

2) Aurelien told me that the missing configuration file was a bug in an
earlier version of libsensors, which should be solved by now. So
upgrading (if you didn't do so already) libsensors3 should solve the
problem.

3) In the long run it would probably make sense to update xsensors to
use the new library, which would avoid having two different
configuration files. But thats a different issue.

I'm tagging this bug as fixed and decrease the severity, because it is
definitive not release-critical for lenny. However: If the problem is
solved for you, this would be good, so that this issue could be closed.

Best Regards,
Patrick
