On a fresh install, indeed, there won't be a "mysql" user (yet) when preinst is run. The check could be changed to something like `if id mysql >/dev/null 2>&1` to gobble up any output that's produced. I don't know if `adduser` needs the `--home` argument specified, as the argument right before is `--no-create-home`. > > What are the steps to reproduce this? I was in a fresh, minimal install of sid. Then I just ran an `apt install mariadb-server`. Mathias
