Oddly enough, I had the same problem: I verified that the rules file actually 
*is* inside the dpkg package, but still dpkg silently ignores it.

I then went ahead and deinstalled the package with the purge command ("apt-get 
purge libctapi-cyberjack2") and reinstalled it. I don't know why but after 
that the rules file was installed...

Anyway, I don't know enough about the guts of dpkg to have an idea why dpkg 
would silenty ignore files inside a package but still installs them when 
purging the predecessor first...


Regards
Martin
