The problem I see here is that zabbix-agent and a zabbix-server-* package is likely to be installed on the same server. And zabbix-server-* uses:
adduser --quiet \ --system --disabled-login --ingroup zabbix \ --home /var/run/zabbix-server/ --no-create-home \ zabbix So if the server package gets installed first the 'zabbix' user gets created with a home directory of /var/run/zabbix-server/ Maybe we should omit the "--no-create-home" option. Hmmm.
