The current testing version (the same version of all packages gets installed in both attempts): 1.40.6-1. But from #466929: ! Actually, adduser and addgroup automatically avoids the range 1-99, ! even if UID_MIN and/or GID_MIN is set to 1. From my grep output it looks like libuuid is getting 42/101. If the above statement is true then why is UID 42 assigned? #466929 may fix that, but doesn't that still leave a bug in adduser that 1-99 _should_ have been avoided automatically? If the range is reserved, it really should not be left to other packages to avoid it.
