Yes, it is a warning introduced by adduser somewhere between sarge and (current) etch. The only way to remove this warning is to remove /var/lib/cyrus from the cyrus-common-2.2 package and rely on adduser and/or cyrus-makedirs to create the directory. I'm not really 100% comfortable with that fix (especially since dpkg no longer knows the dir to belong to the package), but I don't see any other choice if we want to avoid that warning but still show adduser _errors_.
