66 upgrade trouble

A new version of 66 (v0.2.3.2-1) is available on the repo. This version can cause some trouble at update time.
You can get some error messages when you use any 66-XXX tools, for example:
66-enable: warning: unable to open : /etc/66/service/: No such file or directory
The installation process of /etc/66/service (among other directories) was changed. Previously, the creation of this directory was made by the makefile (which is a bad behavior) which is not the case with 0.2.3.2. 66 now take care of all necessaries directories and create it if it missing when you use 66-tree.
Now pacman at update time see that the /etc/66/service is not existing anymore on the new version and so remove it if it's empty;
So to correct the thing simply create a dummy tree (as root) and remove it:
# 66-tree -n dummy # 66-tree -R dummy
This should create the /etc/66/service automatically.
Thanks for your attention
