Version: 1.2.31
Severity: important
After installing logcheck on my system last night I did not recieve any
reports. Upon checking the logs I found that the logcheck file had been
copied into /etc/cron.d before adduser had been run. Cron picked up the
new file and then complained that the user was invalid. Relevant log
lines below. I just restarted cron which I believe has fixed the issue.
Perhaps this can be fixed by copying the file in postinst after the user
has been created.
