Package: xrdp Version: 0.6.0-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch User: ubuntu-de...@lists.ubuntu.com Usertags: origin-ubuntu trusty ubuntu-patch
Dear Maintainer, If xrdp already exists as a user the package fails to install with the following error message: Setting up xrdp (0.6.0-1) ... adduser: The user `xrdp' already exists. Exiting. dpkg: error processing xrdp (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 This patch checks if the user already exists and doesn't re-create the user. I'm not sure if this is the best approach, as an existing user might not have the correct setup to use this package. Thanks for considering the patch. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers precise-updates APT policy: (500, 'precise-updates'), (500, 'precise-security'), (500, 'precise') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.8.0-35-generic (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash
