user-setup (1.2ubuntu4) edgy; urgency=low
* Backport from trunk (closes: Malone #50036):
- Detect and error out on reserved usernames, i.e. those that are
already used by some parts of the system. Unfortunately there's no
particularly straightforward way to identify a reserved username, and
the only way I can think of is to maintain a blacklist; so I've
collated this from the base-passwd master files and those user and
group names I found on some of my systems. Feel free to extend this as
the need arises.
* Backport from trunk (Christian Perrier):
- Spell "username" consistently.
* Update translations from trunk.
