Public bug reported:
Upgrading from groovy to hirsuite, base-passwd asks if the `irc` user's
home directory should be moved from `/var/run/ircd` to `/run/ircd`.
Having no IRC server installed makes this very confusing, but appears
harmless (https://askubuntu.com/questions/876975/user-irc-inside-of-
default-ubuntu-16-04-server). Possibly caused by
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=946884, but can this
not prompt the user for a decision?
