I am working on upgrading the Debian package to 2.1.9

The reason is me being lazy and just listing configrc (as the file is 
named in the tarball) in debian/examples.

Would it be possible that this file is renamed in the clive 
distribution? If config sounds confusing in the root of the tarball, 
perhaps putting it in examples/ subdirectory would be OK?

Meanwhile I will put some effort to get what is expected in the 
examples directory of the package.
