At the same time, your package Depends: adduser, but does not Pre-Depends: adduser. Installing your package fails when adduser is not yet configured. Reproducer: $ mmdebstrap --variant=essential --include=sia unstable /dev/null Selecting previously unselected package sia. Preparing to unpack .../7-sia_1.3.0-4+b3_arm64.deb ... warn: `/etc/adduser.conf' does not exist. Using defaults.
