Public bug reported:

If a user "netdisco" does not exist yet and /home is NFS mounted (and
read-only for local root) the installation of this package fails.

The postinst script contains a call to adduser with a --home
/home/netdisco argument.

Please ask before running where to put the home directory of this user
or just do not create it.
