Hopefully adduser maintainer can comment on this.

Stupidity.

The changelog entry causing this is:

  * adduser und deluser can now run with -T, and actually do it.
    Unfortunately, we had to disable some tests to allow this.
    Thanks to Christoph Berg (Closes: #214546)

To allow running with -T, everything that comes from the outside has to go through a regexp (see perldoc perlsec), and the regexp chosen for the comment is overly tight.

I'm open for suggestions.

Greetings
Marc
