Package: adduser
Version: 3.141
Severity: serious
Hi:
root@swivel-sid-buildd-amd64-nhes:/srv# addgroup --system _hippotat
root@swivel-sid-buildd-amd64-nhes:/srv# adduser --system foo
root@swivel-sid-buildd-amd64-nhes:/srv# adduser foo _hippotat
err: Please enter a username matching the regular expression
configured via the NAME_REGEX configuration variable. Use the
`--allow-bad-names' option to relax this check or reconfigure
NAME_REGEX in configuration.
root@swivel-sid-buildd-amd64-nhes:/srv# adduser --system foo _hippotat
fatal: Specify only one name in this mode.
root@swivel-sid-buildd-amd64-nhes:/srv#
The first adduser foo _hippotat should work and add the user to the
_hippotat group. We should not be sanitizing the group name this
restrictively for the two-argument case adding user to group
Greetings
Marc
