Package: lintian Version: 2.116.3 If my postinst contains:
adduser --system --home=/var/lib/myuser myuser Then lintian complains: E: lintian-adduser-bug: maintainer-script-lacks-home-in-adduser "adduser --system --home=/var/lib/myuser myuser" [postinst:2] As a workaround, I can wrap adduser or --system in quotes, or remove the equals sign between --home and the directory. Then lintian does not complain, even though those variations have the same meaning.
