--- Begin Message ---Package: adduser Version: 3.113+nmu3 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, according to the man page, --quiet is supposed to suppress only informational messages, not errors or warnings. However there are cases when addgroup returns a non-zero exit code without printing any message, for example, when the group to be created already exists with a different GID. I think that, at least, the following pieces of code should not have the "if $verbose" suffix. printf STDERR (gtx("The group `%s' already exists and is not a system group. Exiting.\n"), $new_name) if $verbose; exit RET_OBJECT_ALREADY_EXISTS; printf STDERR (gtx("The group `%s' already exists, but has a different GID. Exiting.\n"), $new_name) if $verbose; exit RET_OBJECT_ALREADY_EXISTS; See also https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=762275#32.
