Package: libuuid1
Version: 1.40.2-1+lenny1
Severity: important
The postinst uses useradd to add a user/group. Policy section 9.2.2 says:
Packages which need a user or group, but can have this user or
group allocated dynamically and differently on each system, should use
adduser --system to create the group and/or user. adduser will check for
the existence of the user or group, and if necessary choose an unused id
based on the ranges specified in adduser.conf."
Using useradd directly will ignore any user tuning of the ranges used in
adduser.conf.
Thanks.
