Your previous packages were from Ubuntu, not from Network RADIUS.

At some point in the past Debian (and Ubuntu) altered their packages to 
put the FreeRADIUS configuration in /etc/freeradius/3.0.

FreeRADIUS has always put the configuration in /etc/freeradius directly, 
which is what the Network RADIUS packages do.

To transition, the easiest way should be to backup the 
/etc/freeradius/3.0 directory contents, purge all the Ubuntu freeradius 
packages and install the Network RADIUS ones. Then copy your backed-up 
configuration files back to /etc/freeradius instead.

You will likely need to fix up "raddbdir" in /etc/freeradius/radiusd.conf

Should be good to go after that.
