I'm fairly sure that .subscriptions isn't used anymore after the 0.9
series. The file is just subscriptions, without a dot (as dot files
are treated as folders IIRC). Not sure if you need to remove the old
file, or if you can just move .subscriptions to subscriptions.

Try searching the list archives, I'm sure it's come up before
