Hello,
Upgrading from etch to lenny, I've been bitten by this bug.
The problem is that /var/lib/dpkg/info/rancid-core.postinst doesn't
check if a rancid user/group exists before calling adduser... which fails.
As this leaves the package broken in an etch to lenny upgrade I'm
bumping the severity to serious.
Be also aware that "adduser --system --group" doesn't insure that
GID=UID. see #453086. By just removing the rancid user and forgotting
rancid group, after a dpkg --configure rancid-core I got :
$ id rancid
uid=112(rancid) gid=1000(rancid) groupes=1000(rancid)
@+,
Fab
