Hi Bill,

Package: nut
Version: 2.0.4-2
Severity: serious

Hello Arnaud,

There is an error when attempting to purge nut:

  Removing nut ...
  Purging configuration files for nut ...
  /var/lib/dpkg/info/nut.postrm: line 5: deluser: command not found
  dpkg: error processing nut (--purge):
   subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 127

The postrm script cannot rely on adduser to be available when purging.

See Policy 7.2:
  Note, however, that the `postrm' cannot rely on any non-essential packages to
  be present during the `purge' phase.

I'm not sure about the best action to be taken:
- check if deluser exist, and try to deluser if possible => that can
leave junks...
- other option?

I'm currently partly off, so I'll investigate asap.

thanks for your report.
Arnaud
