Package: adduser
Version: 3.115
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
deluser currently has
if (($config{remove_home} || $config{remove_all_files} || $config{backup}) &&
($install_more_packages)) {
fail (8, gtx("In order to use the --remove-home, --remove-all-files, and
--backup features,
you need to install the `perl-modules' package. To accomplish that, run
apt-get install perl-modules.\n"));
but perl-modules nowadays only exists as a virtual package that we'd
like to remove at some point.
Please instruct users to install 'perl' instead. See
https://lintian.debian.org/tags/package-relation-with-perl-modules.html
and the long description of the perl-modules-5.24 package (which has
superseded perl-modules.)
