debian/dbus-system-bus-common.postinst makes really really sure that
adduser is policy compliant:
if [ "$1" = configure ]; then
in_sysroot adduser --system \
--quiet \
--home /nonexistent \
--no-create-home \
--disabled-password \
--group "$MESSAGEUSER"
fi
The explicit --no-create-home turns on the warning. I think that adduser
should be quiet in that case, but also dbus should just say "adduser
--system "$MESSAGEUSER".
