Package: src:ensembl Version: 63-1 Severity: important ensembl uses the "nobody" system user for some directories (see ensembl.postinst), but that user is not supposed to own any files:
Daemons that need not own any files sometimes run as user nobody and group nogroup, although using a dedicated user is far preferable. Thus, no files on a system should be owned by this user or group. -- /usr/share/doc/base-passwd/users-and-groups.txt.gz The use of /var/tmp/ensemle is also likely wrong. It's created in postinst and might be removed at any later time (or somebody else might have created a file or directory with this name).
