--- Begin Message ---Package: vdr Version: 2.0.3-2+b1 Severity: serious Tags: patch Justification: The package is uninstallable: this is not a violation of DPM, but should not be in the archive at all instead. Dear Maintainer, Your package is uninstallable on a system where the user "vdr" and group "vdr" exist and the passwd and group databases do not support enumeration or systems where there are more than one such database and the vdr user and group are not defined in the primary one. Note that the first condition is fulfilled by any system where vdr is already installed, thus making it impossible to upgrade vdr (short of editing the postinst script). As the man page of getent mentions, the command getent passwd is not guaranteed to enumerate all users (likewise for getent group), yet this is exactly what the postinst script tries to do to determine if the user/group vdr exists. A very short patch is attached which correctly enumerates said user and group and takes the appropriate action in both cases.
