Which script are you talking about? I do not see the path
mentioned in any of them.
/var/lib/dpkg/info$ grep adduser ntp*
ntp.postinst: adduser --system --quiet --ingroup ntp --no-create-home
ntp
While this doesn't create a directory, it sets the home dir to the
default /home/<user> in /etc/passwd:
$ grep ntp /etc/passwd
ntp:x:102:104::/home/ntp:/bin/false
I don't see how maintair scripts need to change anything for the
upgrade in that case, either they do the right thing or don't.
Well,.. obviously they did it not "cleanly",.. to the usual way is to
clean up on upgrades, otherwise
users will stay with the old settings forever.
Cheers,
Chris.
