** Description changed: - Right now /etc/adduser.conf is generated by a postinst script, which - means the file doesn't end up getting listed as owned by adduser. + /etc/adduser.conf isn't recorded as belonging to the package, but this + is addressed easily by adding adduser.conf to the debian/install file. + + adduser.conf is generated by a postinst script, so it isn't covered by + the normal install stuff. Regardless, it seems to become registered by + just adding it to the install file on the same line as deluser.conf, + which is already there. I often customize deployments using the config-package-dev extension to Debhelper, but this relies on package ownership to manage config files. - Maybe this is an easy request, to add /etc/adduser.conf as an owned file - instead of a generated one? It seems odd that it isn't owned already. + Hopefully this is a trivial suggestion.
