Hm, adduser-ng is orphaned[1] since 18 Nov 2006 due to the upstream maintainer no longer being active. This is not a good sign.
[1] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=399255
But if not adduser-ng, then what? It doesn't look like adduser will allow me to specify different account skeletons per type of user.
I'm CCing debian-custom too for further input.
