Package: opensysusers
Version: 0.7.3-5
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I upgraded pcscd, which has acquired a sysusers dropin since 2.4.0-1 and
opensysusers failed to recognise the locked user type (suffixed 'u!') so did
not create the user:

  Setting up pcscd (2.4.0-1devuan1) ...
  sysusers: ignoring invalid entry on line 3 of 'pcscd.conf'
  ok: run: pcscd: (pid 11819) 1s

  ==> /usr/lib/sysusers.d/pcscd.conf <==
  # Add a locked pcscd system user and group.
  # See man sysusers.d(5).
  u! pcscd - "PC/SC Smart Card Daemon"

Thanks!

Andrew
