I ensured that this file is even no longer installed. Nevertheless I
think it will now fail loading the second *.dat file. Can you please try
the current svn version? (I suggest you remove your old ~/.hex-a-hop
directory because it may contain corrupted data.)

Just obtain the source from hex-a-hop (version is unimportant) and
replace the debian/ directory with the one from SVN (see
http://packages.qa.debian.org/h/hex-a-hop.html for URL).

Now do as usual:
$ dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -us -uc
# dpkg -i ../*.deb

Does this work better?
