[Bug 629234] Re: package vsftpd 2.2.2-3ubuntu6 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

Imre, I like the single call to getent better than the grep as well.
There is an added benefit, which is that this key is taken literally,
while passing it to grep may actually cause false positives by parsing
as a regular expression. For instance, if you have a user

ftpuser

and you input

ftp.ser

As the user during configuration of vsftpd, it will match the . against
the u and NOT create the user.
