For what it is worth: I use `adduser` outside maintainer script.
I think I'm not alone in that.
Useradd has grown most of that functionality in the last two decades.
That leaves no space for adduser between useradd and sysusers. At
least not enouch space to waste any more life time on it.
I'm not sure how much of the Debian-specific rules are encoded in
useradd. This lack of rules might also be a problem for sysusers,
but I have no clue, so let me ask: is there a lintian check for
sysusers files?
As long as people want to use adduser, I think/hope they'd be
grateful for its existence and continued maintenance?
Best,
Chris
