Dear maintainer,

Installation of quassel-core fails on Debian testing. When "dpkg
- --configure -a" is run, the following error is shown.

root@computer:~# dpkg --configure -a

It looks like you have some PAM configuration that disallows root to switch users with 
"su".

I'll change the postinst script to "runuser" which is more appropriate for this 
anyway.

Cheers,
Felix
