Control: retitle -1 fails upgrade of packages with locked system accounts Control: tags -1 confirmed thanks
I confirm this behavior in adduser 3.143. We are currently preparing adduser for the post-trixie cycle. Those changes are not supposed to change adduser's behavior, especially not in common cases. The code in question was written to prepare adduser for addressing of bugs #1008082 - #1008084. Again, a behavior changing change was only planned for post-trixie. We are planning to add an option to lock an account in postrm instead of deleting it. The contraire, unlocking the account in postinst when adduser --system is called, is also planned. It wasn't on my radar that many packages make use of an actually locked account during the life of the package. I have made a note regarding this. I expect a fix for this adduser issue for later today and apologize for the problem. There is no need to debug other packages until adduser 3.144 is uploaded. Greetings Marc
