[Bug 739447] [NEW] puppet-common: home directory `/var/lib/puppet' permissions issue

[earthgecko]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: puppet

This bug was reported under Debian as well - http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=609896

Installing puppet with apt-get (install on VM, not an upgrade).

Setting up puppet (0.24.8-2ubuntu4.1) ...
adduser: Warning: The home directory `/var/lib/puppet' does not belong to the user you are currently creating.

This is because the /var/lib/puppet directory has root:root permissions
as per Debian it would appear, however the Debian report is for puppet-
common version 2.6.2-4, so presumably this may be applicable to most
current stable debian/unbuntu packages.

# ls -al /var/lib/ | grep puppet
drwxr-xr-x  5 root      root    4096 2011-03-21 11:45 puppet
