Package: adduser
Version: 3.63
Severity: minor
"man adduser.conf" gets a warning from man,
/tmp/zmanh3ULIe:112: bad argument name `.'
On that line, I think the "\" in
^[a-z][-a-z0-9]*\$.
is not wanted. (\$ is troff for a macro argument, or something.)
Perhaps this \ is a leftover cut and paste from the perl sources.
