Package: adduser
Version: 3.108
Severity: minor
Hi I'm not totally sure about this, but I think the following happened
several times for me:
1. I've installed plain etch.
2. dist-upgraded to sid
3. debconf asked me for adduser whether I want system wide readable
home-dirs, and I choose no
4. I do a dpkg-reconfigure adduser,... yes is selected
5. When I select no now, subsequent invokations of dpkg-reconfigure show
the correct value.
Is this possible?! ;)
Chris.

I've just tried to reproduce that in a sid chroot, and that failed
(i.e. the issue seems to be gone - if it ever was one in adduser and
not e.g. in debconf or something completely else).
Since I was the original reporter, no one else commented on it, and
you'd also plan to close this... I do so now immediately.
Thanks,
Chris.
