The deal with this is that we can't use gid logcheck in dh_installlogcheck because the logcheck user doesn't exist until logcheck gets installed.
It is annoying, but I've not come up with a solution to this yet.
Ah, good point. I hadn't thought of that. A bit of egg on my face, as I've reported bugs against a few packages because of that. :)
Two suggestions:
1) Logcheck is pervasive enough on Debian systems that you could argue for uid/gid logcheck being added to the 0-99 range in base-passwd (see policy 9.2.2). That's not likely to happen in Sarge, though. Probably a good thing to do immediately after Sarge ships for Etch, I'd guess.
2) Document this clearly, so I don't go filing stupid non-bugs. :)
