Hi, adduser currently fails to build from source on sid due to #386912. I don''t know enough perl to work my way around this. Any idea how to fix this?

We could do a better job prototyping functions, and make explicit arguments to functions and so forth, but it doesn''t really look like that''s the fix - it looks like the fix is in the bug log itself, unless I''m mistaken. I''m happy to start working on stricter function prototyping (we need to clean the code up anyway) but as I say, it doesn''t look like it will make any difference here. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- | ,''''`.

Nekral was helpful on IRC last night and I committed a workaround. adduser 3.98 is a candidate for etch.
