That's not what happened.
The sreview user already existed before the sreview-common package was
installed, but it did not exist in /etc/passwd; instead, it existed in a
different location, configured through an NSS module.
The easiest way for you to test this is probably to install libnss-db,
change the value of ETC in /etc/default/libnss-db to some other
directory and cull the DBS value so it contains just passwd, then create
a file called "passwd" in the directory that you pointed ETC to, run
"make -C /var/lib/misc", and add "db" to /etc/nsswitch.conf on the
"passwd" line.
Meanwhile, I'm going to have to implement it properly and remove
dh_sysuser from my build-depends. Ah well.
