Author pbuilder/cdebootstrap/etch: exim4-config install error in etch

Hi,

=46rom since about yesterday, on my amd64 box,=20
etch(testing) is failing to bootstrap with the following message:

O: Setting up exim4-config (4.52-2) ...
P: Configuring package exim4-config
O: hostname:
O: Host name lookup failure
O:
O: hostname:
O: Host name lookup failure
O:
O: Adding system-user for exim (v4)
O: chage: can't open shadow password file
O: groupdel: group Debian-exim does not exist

It seems like it's a transient error; which should be fixed when
a fixed adduser enters etch:


adduser (3.67.2) unstable; urgency=3Dlow

* duh. _really_ handle the changed chage exit code.

That one should happen since months. A fix is using shadow passwords,
which will probably do until

>adduser (3.67.2) unstable; urgency=3Dlow


has migrated to etch.

You can check it out, but the last successful testsuite that I ran
and committed to CVS is 4 Oct 2005; which is not months.

I do not have a clue about pbuilder, but adduser's support of
shadow-less systems was first broken in 3.64 by the fix for bug
298883.
