Actually, yes. Both, that is.

As it turns out, the source in the Debian "stable" tree has a bug. I
grabbed the current tarball and mv'd phpgroupware/address to
/usr/shared/phpgroupware and the problem was resolved.

I have two new problems that I've come across though. One is in deleting a
custom field that generates an error (I'll file a bug report but have to
test it on the other configurations I've installed phpgroupware to first)
but the other is more from an end-user perspective... how does one
configure the search categories for the address book? The default is "All"
and the drop-down menu doesn't offer any alternatives.
