Package: mailman Version: 1:2.1.11-11+lenny1 Severity: normal When "su - list", the home directory does not exist for the 'list' user. /var/list
Also, chapter 5 of the FHS states: Applications must generally not add directories to the top level of /var. Such directories should only be added if they have some system-wide implication, and in consultation with the FHS mailing list. Thus, it seems like /var/list as a home directory for the user 'list' violates that section of the FHS.
