Hmmm... I don't know but maybe there is a reason that they want user #1 logged in. Maybe the "1" is of importance. Just a thought.

Maybe one should ask this question upstream. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
