Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: fglrx

After fglrx upgrade to 2:8.721-0ubuntu7 and restarting X couldn't start
with fglrx driver.

1)
Description:	Ubuntu lucid (development branch)
Release:	10.04

2)
fglrx:
  Zainstalowana: 2:8.721-0ubuntu7
  Kandydująca: 2:8.721-0ubuntu7
  Tabela wersji:
 *** 2:8.721-0ubuntu7 0
        500 http://pl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/restricted Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3) I expected normal start of X.org  with fglrx driver
4) X couldn't start, I've got a message containing:
(EE) Unable to initialize PCS database
(EE) Missing PCS defaults file /etc/ati/amdpcsdb.default
(EE) No devices detected.

The /etc/ati folder lacks amdpcsdb.default, control, signature files,
solved by copying older version
cd /etc/ati
sudo cp amdpcsdb.default.dpkg-bak amdpcsdb.default
sudo cp control.dpkg-bak control
sudo cp signature.dpkg-bak signature

The upgrade to 2:8.721-0ubuntu7 was normal, it wasn't interrupted etc.
