Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: vsftpd

2.2.2-3ubuntu6

debian/vsftpd.postinst has

if ! getent passwd | grep -q "^${_USERNAME}"

($_USERNAME being "ftp" by default).

It should be:

if ! getent -- passwd "$_USERNAME"

same for groups.

** Affects: vsftpd (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
