[Bug 42632] Re: startup script is broken

[Joshua Ochs]

"The problem with the patch is that in debconf you can specify as which
user and which group this runs."

The problem with the existing code is it DOES NOT RUN. Please try to
explain why this is a preferable state of affairs to the simple patch
posted. Put the patch as in and let it work for 99% of people, and
revisit this later for the remaining 1%.

Meanwhile, this is an obvious bug that would have been found if the
script had been run ONCE prior to submitting the package. I'm at a loss
for acceptable language to express my disgust.
