You have been subscribed to a public bug:

as seen in bug 1492327, adduser now works for creating users in the
extrausers db but when it tries to update the GECOS field at the end of
adding a user (interactively and noninteractively) chfn falls over ...

chfn needs similar patches to the other shadow binaries that recently
got extrausers support.
