Onderwerp: Bug#673759: sympa: fails to install: chown: invalid user:
`sympa:sympa'

Creating the dedicated sympa:sympa user is, per the documentation (
http://www.sympa.org/manual_6.1/installing-sympa#prerequisites ), a
prerequisite. Does that mean that when packaged the user creation should be
automated ? I don't know a lot about packaging ...
