Package: adduser
Version: 3.99
Severity: minor
I occasionally see this message (sometimes during package installation):
Warning: that home directory does not belong to the user you are currently
creating.
But I don''t find any information about what "that" home
directory might be.
Either the directory should be spelled out in the message, or it should be
something like "the home directory specified on the command line" or
whatever
it is, although I would prefer the former.

I have added the directory name to the string, but am going to leave that change commented out until post-etch. I really would like to avoid changes in the program translation templates at this stage of release.
