The fix in the package should be easy, by just replacing on amd64
/usr/lib64/fglrx with /usr/lib/fglrx, those three strings are related:

$ strings aticonfig |grep ^/usr/lib
/usr/lib64/fglrx/switchlibglx
/usr/lib64/fglrx
/usr/lib64/fglrx/switchlibGL

My only problem atm, I don't get it work with rpl, e.g:

me at exez:~/build$ rpl -e '/usr/lib64/fglrx\0' '/usr/lib/fglrx\0!!\0'
aticonfig
Replacing "/usr/lib64/fglrx\0" with "/usr/lib/fglrx\0!!\0" (case
sensitive) (partial words matched)
.
A Total of 1 matches replaced in 1 file searched.
me at exez:~/build$ strings aticonfig |grep ^/usr/lib
/usr/lib64/fglrx/switchlibglx
/usr/lib/fglrx
/usr/lib64/fglrx/switchlibGL
me at exez:~/build$ ./aticonfig
Speicherzugriffsfehler
me at exez:~/build$
