Package: wicd Version: 1.6.1-1 Severity: serious Heya,
[Initially, was: Subject: wicd: Please don't propose additions to netdev if not relevant Severity: minor ] I guess you may want to filter out users that are already in the netdev group. As for my system, got two users, cyril & guest, the former being in the netdev group already, and both were proposed as “Users to add to the netdev group”. But, looking at the code: | # Add users not there yet | for u in $users; do | adduser $u netdev | netdev=$(echo $netdev | sed -e "s...@$u@@g") | done | | # Remove users, present in the group, but not chosen in debconf | for u in $netdev; do | deluser $u netdev | done So you: - fail to detect people already in the netdev group. - advertise you're going to add some users to that group. - actually remove people that previously were there (because the local admin may not want to check boxes for users that are known to already be in the right group). That shouldn't migrate to testing in this shape, IMHO.
