[Pkg-net-snmp-devel] Bug#819531: Invalid user name 'Debian-snmp' for adduser

[IOhannes m zmölnig (Debian/GNU)]

Package: snmpd
Version: 5.7.3+dfsg-1.1
Followup-For: Bug #819531

Confirmed.

WHile I don't have a strong opinion about the "Debian-" prefix (vs a leading
underscore), in any case the postinst script needs to call adduser with the
"--force-badname" (as is done e.g. by exim4-config)
