Package: nut
Version: 2.0.3-4
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
With a fresh install I got:
Unpacking nut (from .../archives/nut_2.0.3-4_i386.deb) ...
/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/preinst: line 15: [: too many arguments
Setting up nut (2.0.3-4) ...

Apparently the reason is that I have set up a nut user in /etc/passwd
in advance, and that it had some characters in it which confused the
shell. I sugget the following patch:
