Adduser devel - Aug 2007 - Bug#438801: adduser: use of uninit value

Package: adduser
Version: 3.104

While I was building a debian-live image I got this message.  As you
can see I''d built the image once before and was restarting from
somewhere in the middle causing reinstallation of ntop (probably the
same version getting installed twice).

Setting up ntop (3:3.2-10.1) ...
Adding system user: ntop.
Use of uninitialized value in printf at /usr/sbin/adduser line 188.
Warning: The home dir  you specified already exists.
Adding system user `ntop'' (UID 106) ...
Adding new group `ntop'' (GID 109) ...
Adding new user `ntop'' (UID 106) with group `ntop'' ...
adduser: Warning: The home directory `/var/lib/ntop'' does not belong to
the user you are currently creating.
The home directory `/var/lib/ntop'' already exists.  Not copying from
`/etc/skel''.

The problem is a wrong set parenthesis in line 188; the fix has just been
committed to subversion. Thanks for reporting.
